RE: Platforms supported by Bison

[YiQing Yang]

Hi Bob,

Thanks for your reply. I downloaded the Bison and read through the "INSTALL"
doc, but it does not mention at all how to configure (or compile) Bison on
Windows platform. Sorry I didn't get what you mean "For windows look at
mingw port, you can download a binary." from your previous email. I would
appreciate if you can give me more hints. 
We are now using MKS tool to run "Yacc" on Windows, I wonder if we still
need it in order to build and run Bison on Windows.

Anyone else has any idea?

Thanks for your help,

YiQing Yang

Yes it does. For windows look at mingw port, you can download a binary.
Otherwise, bison ports to all major unix systems.
