[Genparse-users] Multiple global functions?

[<li...@mi...>]

Hi Mike,

In the genparse info file in the description of the global functions I found:
"Only 1 global callback function is allowed." In the example in the info pages
I found "There may be more than one global callback - all will be called in 
the parser function."

I do not remember if I was the one who wrote that only 1 global callback 
function is allowed - but that's how I always thought about it. Is there a 
reason for more than 1 global callback function? The user can program what
he wants in that callback function, he can of course also call other 
functions from there if he likes.

----------------------

Another topic: I'm proposing to add an #exit_value macro to the list of
possible global definitions in the genparse file. For example

#exit_value -2

in case of a failure the generated parser would then call exit(-2). 

Or with

#exit_value MY_EXIT_CODE

the program would call exit(MY_EXIT_CODE) which makes sense if MY_EXIT_CODE
is defined in one of the include files.
