What are the pros and cons to a handwritten parser? Can it potentially be more standards compliant (since it's not limited)? Would it be harder or easier to make faster and/or multithreaded? Does a handwritten parser tend to get overly complicated after a while as you attempt to factor in every possibility (which would mean something too buggy and complicated to handle in the end)? A handwritten parser will be harder for newcomers to get into (though this can be helped by extensive documentation), am I right? Others? Kevin |
