Are there a versions/variants of lex & yacc that generate ANSI C?


Dan <<<< dcummings@trc.amoco.com
[Most versions of yacc and lex get all the code from a template file,
generating only the contents of the tables. The flex and bison
skeletons have ifdefs for an ANSI compiler. A quick look at the AT&T yacc
parser suggests that it'd be easy enough to ansify it, probably without
having to change yacc at all. -John]
