I succesfully tried PCCTS on Solaris 2.6, HPUX11 and AIX 4.3 with a sample
grammar. It is true that you have to modify the makefiles a bit, but you
are a developer, not a secretary, right ?
The successor of PCCTS is ANTLR (www.antlr.org), which generates C++ or
Java parsers. I could not create a working C++ parser with ANTLR, but
maybe I made some mistakes..


hope this helps,


Frank
