Coco/R combines the functionality of the well-known UNIX tools lex and yacc,
|
|
|
|
|
to form an extremely easy to use compiler generator that generates recursive
|
|
|
|
|
descent parsers, their associated scanners, and (in some versions) a driver
|
|
|
|
|
program, from attributed grammars (written using EBNF syntax with attributes
|
|
|
|
|
and semantic actions) which conform to the restrictions imposed by LL(1)
|
|
|
|
|
parsing (rather than LALR parsing, as allowed by yacc). The user has to add
|
|
|
|
|
modules for symbol table handling, optimization, and code generation in
|
|
|
|
|
order to get a running compiler. Coco/R can also be used to construct other
|
|
|
|
|
syntax-based applications that have less of a "compiler" flavour.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Coco/R is available in Oberon, Modula-2, Pascal, Delphi, C, Java and C#
|
|
|
|
|
versions. This port only builds the C/C++ version.
