Thanks Vaibhav .
I have step into parser before but I meet a problem:

when I debug step in the scanner_init(), Eclipse always finds scan.l
and the excute order is not match the file.
I think it should be scan.c actually but I don't known how to trace
into scan.c :(
PS: I have turn "Search for duplicate source files" option on.

I have posted to the mail list, but it have not solved.
