Try "The Eiffel Object-Oriented Parsing Library" by Philip Hucklesby and

The article describes a library of classes for lexical analysis and
parsing, along with a tool, yoocc ("Yes! and Object-Oriented Compiler
Compiler), making it possible to generate parsers, where the
syntactic and semantic parts are cleanly separated.
I don't have this paper, but it seems to be a much higher level interface
to the parsing library.
Is this tool available from ISE, or is it still experimental ?

YOOCC is still an internal tool; its public release is planned for June 1st. It will most likely be distributed as a separate product, as part of the Eiffel Shelf (repository of Eiffel components or tools, contributed by us or by others). By the way, for anyone who wants to make it for the first edition of the Eiffel shelf, the time to submit contributions (classes etc.) is now. The contact is Tom McCarthy (tmc@eiffel.com). -- -- Bertrand Meyer bertrand@eiffel.com
