> > Vern,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I find that in parse.y,you write like this  
"decl:  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;¡­¡­  
&nbsp;&nbsp;\> TOK\_TYPE global\_id ':' refined\_type opt\_attr opt\_attr\_attr';'  
"  
"refined\_type:  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;type\_list '{' type\_decl\_list '}'  
"

Why is there a 'type\_list' here but a type???

Because in the manual,we define a record like this  
"type conn\_id : record{  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;orig\_h : addr ; # Address of originating host.  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Orig\_p: port; # Port used by originator.  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Resp\_h: addr; # Address of responding host.  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Resp\_p : port; # Port used by responder.  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;};  
"  
There is only one record here ???

Please help me!  
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
