Thanks John for response.
I am able to write flex tokens and bison parser and able to retrieve tokens and values. Now, I want to put these values to a list. I implemented with C linked list
with simple structure
struct node{
        char* name;
        int dimensions[4];
        char* type;
        struct node *next;
};
I am able to populate the list for "name" parameter. The type is also of type char*. How, I can differentiate between parameter "char* name" or "char* type" when I populate list.

The flex code has tokens and bison parser code understands these tokens correctly. Now, I need to put these values to list.  I think I am missing something here. There is no context in bison code.

[If it's not obvious from context what kind of nodes are in the list, add a tag field to the
node that tells you what kind of node it is.  For nodes this small it doesn't really
matter, but we often use a union to use the same space for fields that appear in different
kinds of nodes. -John]
