strange effects

[Arnt Witteveen]

Hi, I'm using bison 1.28 (can't get 1.30 to compile under Visual studio)
combined with flex 2.5.4. I'm trying to read 2 files and a string. This
generally works fine, except in one case: if the string I try to read has a
syntax error (first token is not what was expected, due to corruption of the
string usually), yacc bails out. 

If I try to read from a file after that, I get the same error as I got for
the corrupted string. I guess some buffer is not correctly cleaned up or
something, but I have been looking for the better part of this day to fix
this and I can't. Basically, my code is this:

first:

inputbuff = yy_scan_string(cpStr);

then yyparse() which returns the error.

then later:

inputbuff = yy_create_buffer( f, YY_BUF_SIZE );
yy_switch_to_buffer( inputbuff );

then yyparse() again which returns the same error over and over.

Is something obviously wrong with this?
