    • Do not run setup_flex_bison.sh
    • Use current Windows-generated flex header file at [libraries/VAL/src/Parser/pddl+.lex.yy.h]

  • Note: bison on macOS running well

    • Edit YACC file at [libraries/VAL/src/Parser/pddl+.y] as needed
    • Run bison command from script (bison pddl+.y -o pddl+.cpp) directly through terminal
