Keywords: C++, parse, question

I have been reading "The Design and Evolution of C++" book, in which
Stroustrup mentions that there is considerable difficulty parsing
C++ with a LALR(1) grammar.


Could someone give me some examples of language features that cause
problems ? Has anyone made an analysis of what kind of grammar could
be used to parse C++ without problems ?




Thanks, -- Kris
