Re: accessing yyval outside lex and yacc

[Manju James]

tanks for clearing that up !
was beginning to wonder if i was missing out on sum fun - with using classes
for YYTYPE  ; - }
I can see i have a lot to learn - but looks like a lot of fun.

and ya - i wouldnt call myself an expert or anything in C++ - just enough
for sum tricks. May the verbose be with u too.

thanks for all the help, again.
