[nft PATCH] parser_bison: Accept arbitrary user-defined names by quoting

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Parser already allows to quote user-defined strings in some places to
avoid clashing with defined keywords, but not everywhere. Extend this
support further and add a test case for it.

Note: This is a reduced variant of "src: Quote user-defined names" sent
      back in January. Discussion was not conclusive regarding whether
      to quote these names on output or not, but I assume allowing for
      users to specify them by adding quotes is a step forward without
      drawbacks.
