qtBisonC++ is a general-purpose parser generator that converts a grammar description for an LALR(1) context-free grammar into a QT C++ program to parse that grammar. qtBisonC++ reads the given input files for a description of a scanner to generate. The description is in the form of grammar in Backus-Naur Form (BNF), called rules. qtBisonC++ generates as output a C++ source and include file, `lexyy.cpp` and `lexyy.h`, which defines a class `lexyy'. This file is compiled with your code to produce an executable. When the executable is run, it analyses its input to verify that its correspond to the grammar.

...Long term goals include a robust grammar file syntax, output suitable for multiple programming languages, and tools for better integrating compiler functionality, parse tree manipulation, and FSM based scanner generation.

Styx is a scanner and parser generator designed to address some shortcomings of the traditional lex/yacc combination. It has unique features like automatic derivation of depth grammar, production of the derivation tree including it's C interface which provides access to the abstract syntax tree, preservation of full source information and pretty printing to facilitate source-source translation, persistence to aid rapid interpreter writing.

Implementation of a combined scanner and parser generator for object oriented C++ or Java code generation

CppCC is an object-oriented scanner and LL(k) parser generator. It aims to replace LEX&YACC for those who write C++ applications that involve parsing.
