[Flex-devel] Suggestion for an alternate skeleton file

[Joe K. <kr...@ni...>]

My primary goal for reorganizing the skeleton is to reduce bugs and 
improve maintainability. However, any reorganization is likely to cause 
problems for some users. It might be better as a first step to convert 
C-generated code to skeleton-generated code, and replace the simple 
skelout() conditionals with m4 processing, but without the reorganized 
header. In that case, the actual sources generated for all of the test 
cases can be checked with diff, and should have only trivial changes.

The reorganized header could then be distributed as an experimental 
version that people can try with the --skel= flag, and hopefully get 
some good user feedback.
