I am working on a parallel programming project that will involve the creation of several translators. It would be nice if these translators could be developed using very high level tools. Since this is a research project, the speed of the translators is not critical. I am interested in experiences with and availability of syntax directed translation engines like GAG. Does anyone know where to get this program? I am also interested in tools to assist in the creation of symbol tables. On a more general note, are there tools out there that can speed the development of translators more than lex and yacc type things? What is the state of the art in this area?
