-Description: language tool for constructing recognizers, compilers etc
- ANTLR, ANother Tool for Language Recognition, (formerly PCCTS) is
- a language tool that provides a framework for constructing recognizers,
- compilers, and translators from grammatical descriptions containing C++
- or Java actions [You can use PCCTS 1.xx to generate C-based parsers].
- .
- Computer language translation has become a common task. While
- compilers and tools for traditional computer languages (such as C
- or Java) are still being built, their number is dwarfed by the thousands
- of mini-languages for which recognizers and translators are being
- developed. Programmers construct translators for database formats,
- graphical data files (e.g., PostScript, AutoCAD), text processing
- files (e.g., HTML, SGML). ANTLR is designed to handle all of your
- translation tasks.
+Description: ANTLR Parser Generator
+ ANTLR (ANother Tool for Language Recognition) is a powerful parser generator
+ for reading, processing, executing, or translating structured text or binary
+ files. It's widely used to build languages, tools, and frameworks. From a
+ grammar, ANTLR generates a parser that can build and walk parse trees.
