 How to make the InnoDB parser and lexer C files:
 
-1. First do
-        bison -d pars0grm.y
-   That generates pars0grm.tab.c and pars0grm.tab.h.
+1. Run ./make_flex.sh to generate lexer files.
 
-2. Rename pars0grm.tab.c to pars0grm.c and pars0grm.tab.h to pars0grm.h.

-3. Copy pars0grm.h also to /innobase/include

-4. Do
-        flex pars0lex.l

-5. Rename lex.yy.c to lexyy.c.
-
-6. Add '#include "univ.i"' before #include <stdio.h> in lexyy.c

-7. Add a type cast to int to the assignment below the comment
