I am using flex++ to generate a C++ scanner with the YY_DECL
redefine in order for yylex() to return a C++ class called Token.
However once I define YY_DECL I get a huge amount of errors from the
compiler. I am using Flex2.5.2. Does anyone know of a way to do this
when generating a C++ class? I certianly don't want to the return
type to be int.
