From the golang-nuts mailing list (with few modifications): --== intro ==-- Hi. I just want to announce a simple port of the lemon parser generator to the Go programming language. Shortly: Lemon is a LALR(1) parser generator, similar to yacc, but is much simpler. Also it has few neat features, like: - It is thread-safe and re-entrant - Tokenizer calls the parser, instead of parser calls tokenizer (the opposite of yacc/bison) - Uses no global variables, allows to run multiple parsers simultaneously - Auto-generation of token symbol constants (yacc/bison requires a list) - No need to count grammar symbols, they can be named (nice names instead of $1 $2 $3) - etc.. The Lemon is developed as a part of the sqlite project. The generator code is quite horrible, but it works and I believe it is very solid. Of course it has few drawbacks, but.. :) Lemon homepage: http://www.hwaci.com/sw/lemon --== golemon specific info ==-- I don't know whether I will support the golemon or not, but at least if someone likes lemon (like me), he/she has a decent (I hope so) base for his/her experiments now. I've successfully compiled and executed the very beginning of this tutorial: http://freshmeat.net/articles/lemon-parser-generator-tutorial See also 'examples' directory. Hopefully, I will have enough enthusiasm to fix some of the obvious issues (see TODO).
