ANTLR (ANother Tool for Language Recognition) is a powerful parser generator for reading, processing, executing, or translating structured text or binary files. It's widely used to build languages, tools, and frameworks. From a grammar, ANTLR generates a parser that can build and walk parse trees. It’s widely used in academia and industry to build all sorts of languages, tools, and frameworks. Twitter search uses ANTLR for query parsing, with over 2 billion queries a day. The languages for...

...Their state machines are precompiled and serialized, so run time initialization is fast no matter how large the rule set. JPlex is not a parser generator; it only generates an interface for its parsers, and it does not build a parse tree. When the lexer identifies a token that has a named event associated with it, it passes the token to the parser method associated with that event. A lexer can dispatch token events to any number of parsers. JPlex is steadily being improved, and the Subversion repo will almost always be newer and better than the binary download.

Extension of the CUP parser generator for working with abstract syntax trees (ast). Implements support for class hierarchy generation and automatic tree building from CUP grammar specification files. Version 10k of CUP is used.
