Hi,


I was wondering if there are libraries or frameworks that allowed to
build parsers and lexers.


This would be an alternative to using tools such as LEX/YACC or ANTLR.
These frameworks would have to provide more flexibility and control than
parser generators. Yet they would make the job of building a parser
easier that doing it from scratch.


These librairies could provide classes to do token management, define
AST nodes, etc..


I know that the Eiffel language has such a library. Is there an
equivalent for C++.


Thanks
