Re: Flex and Bison C++ Example

[Robert Hollencamp]

The point was mainly to demonstrate Flex and Bison both together in C++
mode; I created the example as a learning experiment and thought I would
share my code / notes.

The included sample is indeed sufficient, although slightly more complex. It
can look a little overwhelming when you open the directory and are greeted
by 15 files; my example has 6 files (mainly due to the omission of the
generated source files - in my opinion the automatically generated files
should be removed from the Bison example).

I guess it would be nice to have both examples - mine is incredibly trivial,
which makes it easier to get through and understand the basics, whereas the
already included example demonstrates actually doing something and is more
fully featured.
