inserting into tab.h, after %union

[Jeff Inman]

Hi folks,

I'm running bison 2.3 on OSX 10.4.8

It seems wrong to me that the second set of "%{ ... %}", after a "% 
union{ ...}",  should insert
into the tab.cpp file, instead of into the tab.hpp file.  I want to  
make more declarations
that depend on the type produced by the union.  It seems to me that  
the main purpose
in allowing for a second set of %{ ... %}  would be just that.  If I  
wanted to generate text
into the tab.cpp file, I can do that after the final "%%".

I had thought this new capability would allow me to get rid of the  
little support file I used
to need, which includes the tab.hpp file and then adds some more  
declarations.  Then
I'd include the support header file everywhere, instead of the  
tab.hpp file.  I thought I would
now be able to get rid of that and do everything in the grammar file  
itself, using the second "%{ %}"
body, and generate everything into the tab.hpp file.

Suggestions?  Am I missing something?

Thanks,

Jeff
