Re: Tools for Front End.



Hi,

Thanks a lot for your kind reply.

I am planning to write a Fortran compiler and for it I am just
evaluating various tools available in the market which can help me in
designing various modules lexical, semantic, parser, preprocessor etc.

As there are lots of tools in market and it will take lots of time to
evaluate all the tools so I need help of you guys who can atleast guide
me for known tools so that I can do investigation about certain tools
only.

Please let me know if my explanation is ok ? or u need some more
detailed one ?

regards
asheesh

a yacc parser. -John]
