You can specify the form of +the text to be parsed using a combination of regular expressions and grammar +productions. Because of the parsing technique (technically a scannerless GLR +parser based on the Tomita algorithm) there are no restrictions. The grammar +can be ambiguous, right or left recursive, have any number of null productions, +and because there is no seperate tokenizer, can include whitespace in terminals +and have terminals which are prefixes of other terminals. DParser handles not +just well formed computer languages and data files, but just about any wacky +situation that occurs in the real world. + +WWW: http://dparser.sourceforge.net/ |
