Bug 91943 – Build failure in WebCore/xml/XPathParser.cpp with bison-2.6

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: DUPLICATE
• Component: XML

[Mike Gilbert]

When building chromium with bison-2.6, the following error occurs:

third_party/WebKit/Source/WebCore/xml/XPathParser.cpp: In member function ‘WebCore::XPath::Expression* WebCore::XPath::Parser::parseStatement(const WTF::String&, WTF::PassRefPtr<WebCore::XPathNSResolver>, WebCore::ExceptionCode&)’:
third_party/WebKit/Source/WebCore/xml/XPathParser.cpp:478:39: error: too many arguments to function ‘int WebCore::XPath::xpathyyparse()’
/var/tmp/portage/www-client/chromium-21.0.1180.49/work/chromium-21.0.1180.49/out/Release/obj/gen/webkit/XPathGrammar.hpp:108:5: note: declared here

It seems that bison-2.6 produces different output for WebCore/xml/XPathGrammar.y than previous versions.
