yacc/bison help

[thomas]

hello I m writing a simple parser using bison. I just used someone's else
c++ grammar, to produce a code beutifier. The thing is , most of the actions
for productions would have form
{$$ = $1 + $2 + $3} and so forth depending on number of terminals in
production. Is it possible to set default action for all the productions
like the one above ? It is something strange to type this formula for over
200 productions.

In a spot-welding newsgroup, would you expect to be able to get
answers about how to drive your lawn-mower, just because the
lawn-mower happened to have some spot-welds?

There is a google group devoted to Lex and Yacc,
http://groups.google.ca/group/compcompilerslex-and-yacc
or you could try comp.compilers or comp.unix.progr ammer

Yeah you got right, but the group for lawn-mower is moderated, so the answer
about driving would be hard to get, but seriously lex/yacc are realy basis
of computer programing, so I think I will get an answer here.

Neither yacc nor bison are C, you might find comp.compilers a better
place to ask for help, but check their FAQ and a weeks worth of posting
first.

One could argue that keyboards, monitors, and hard drives are also
basic to computer programming, but no one asks about THEM here and
gets an answer. How about electrons? Pretty tough to program without
those, indeed, but yet again, they aren't discussed here.

Really, just head to the resources you were directed to.

No you won't. lexx and yacc are not mentioned in any of the ISO
standards for C, and this newsgroup deals with the standard C
language, as defined in those standards. Thus you question is
off-topic. Now look at the groups previously recommended, repeated
below.
