I have run across a few old (1984) _Ada Letters_ that mention the availability of yacc and LALR specifications of the Ada grammar. However, I have not had any luck locating the files. Does anyone know where I can find a public domain yacc specification of the Ada grammar? I *do* have the ability to do anonymous ftp. Also, there has been a rumor of an Ada -> DIANA parser that uses yacc. Anybody know about this? Thanks in advance, David Hardin -- David Hardin Rockwell International M/S 124-211, 400 Collins Rd.

I posted this once before, but it seemed to get lost in the ether... apologies if this is really its second occurrenc at your site.

Check out the following files on SIMTEL20: PD2:<ADA.EXTERNAL-TOOLS>GRAMMAR.PRO PD2:<ADA.EXTERNAL-TOOLS>GRAMMAR.SRC PD2:<ADA.EXTERNAL-TOOLS>GRAM2.PRO PD2:<ADA.EXTERNAL-TOOLS>GRAM2.SRC GRAMMAR.SRC is a yacc description of the Ada grammar, and I believe GRAM2 is just an updated version of GRAMMAR. These files contain only the grammar rules, no actions are included. You can get them via anonymous ftp from SIMTEL20.ARPA (among other methods). If you hear anything about an Ada->DIANA yacc-based parser like the one you mentioned, I'd like to hear about it too!
