Errors in making a re-entrant parser - c++

Question

I have tried a lot, but could not figure out what the errors are.
Any detailed explanation about the this will be very helpful.
So basically i am trying to write a re-entrant parser and these are my files.
Lex1.ll
%{
#include "Globals.h"
#include "yac1.tab.hh"
extern "C"
{
int yylex(void);
}
%}
alpha [A-Za-z]
digit [0-9]
%option case-insensitive
%option bison-bridge
%option reentrant
%option noyywrap
%%
"DELETE ALL" return DELALL;
"INSERT" return INSERT;
DELETE return DELETE;
FIND return FIND;
(\+|\-)?[0-9]+ { return INT; }
\n { return ENDL; }
. ;
%%
yac1.yy
%{
#include <stdio.h>
#include "Globals.h"
%}
%pure-parser
%error-verbose
%{
#define YYPARSE_PARAM parm
#define YYLEX_PARAM ((struct parsed_vals *)parm)->scanner
#define cast ((struct parsed_vals *) parm)
void yyerror(struct parsed_vals * parm,const char *s)
{
fprintf(stderr, "error: %s\n", s);
}
extern "C"
{
int yylex(void );
// int yywrap()
// {
// return 1;
// }
}
%}
%token INSERT DELETE DELALL FIND ENDL
%union {
int ival;
float fval;
char *sval;
}
%token <ival> INT
%token <fval> FLOAT
%token <sval> STRING
%%
S:T
T: INSERT val {cast->cmd=INSERT_CMD;}
| DELETE val {cast->cmd=DELETE_CMD;}
;
val : INT ENDL {cast->type=INT_TYPE;
(cast->data).int_data=$1;}
|
FLOAT ENDL {cast->type=FLOAT_TYPE;
(cast->data).float_data=$1;}
|
STRING ENDL {cast->type=STRING_TYPE;
(cast->data).str_data=$1;}
;
%%
My main function testlex.cc
#include <stdio.h>
#include "Globals.h"
#include "lexheader.h"
#include "yac1.tab.hh"
int yyparse(void *);
yyscan_t scanner;
main()
{
struct parsed_vals foo;
const char * buffer = "inseRt 4\n";
yylex_init(&(foo.scanner));
yyset_extra(&foo, foo.scanner);
YY_BUFFER_STATE bp = yy_scan_string( buffer, foo.scanner );
yy_switch_to_buffer(bp, foo.scanner);
int a;
int ret_val = yyparse(&foo);
yy_delete_buffer(bp, foo.scanner);
if(ret_val!=0) printf("False");
printf ("hello %d\n",foo.data.int_data);
printf ("hello %d\n",foo.type);
yylex_destroy(foo.scanner);
}

I am just not able to figure out what is going wrong.
Expecting detailed reply and no links.
I have already referred to these links

Here's a number of issues and the corresponding fixes.
Erase the prototype of yylex from both lex1.ll and yac1.yy. You shouldn't have to define it yourself anywhere.
Add two #include's near the beginning of yac1.yy:
#include "yac1.tab.hh"
#include "lexheader.h"
Make sure you have them in this order, as the first one defines YYSTYPE which is used by the second one. This is a known issue with flex/bison lexers and parsers.
Fix the prototype and the definition of yyerror in yac1.yy. It should be:
void yyerror(const char *s);
If you need an extra parameter there, for your own purpose from your own calls, you
cannot expect the parser to provide it. In this case, define your own error handler
and use a different name.
After all this, your program compiles using your Makefile. Whether it works as expected or not, I cannot tell.
