For example, you can specify). Our code currently using that feature whicn needs to be migrated over to bison which doesn't have this option. Any idea about the approach?

I don't know what you call 'yacc'.  What we mean by "Bison is compatible with YACC", is Bison implements the features of YACC as specified by POSIX (http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/000095399/utilities/yacc.html).  There is no such thing as -P.

However, Bison features different skeletons (read "backends"), which probably correspond in spirit with -P, but is certainly not compatible in any way with your yacc.

Cheers!
