MKS Lex & Yacc
Published By:
MKS Lex & Yacc simplifies the development of interpretive and analytical software such as customized compilers and parsers and automates the process of translating user input providing valuable aid to those who write compilers, database query languages and text processing applications.
MKS Lex & Yacc scanning and parsing tools automate the process of translating user input. Lex builds a lexical analyzer, a C or C++ function that takes a stream of input and breaks it up into tokens according to the rules you specify. YACC builds a parser, a C or C++ function that takes a stream of tokens (such as those provided by MKS LEX) and matches them against the grammar you provide.
MKS Lex & Yacc is now seamlessly integrated into Microsoft Visual Studio v6.0 allowing you to design and implement your scanners and parsers from within the VC++ 6.0 IDE.
MKS Lex & Yacc allows you to:
- Build compiler front-ends
- Simplify the creation of language translators
- Easily design custom 'languages' for specific applications
- Quickly develop interpreters
