Open Source Java Parser Generators for Mac

BNF for Java is a BNF Compiler-Compiler, or Parser-Generator. It implements ISO Standard Backus-Naur Format, using Java. BNF allows you to create a syntax, or a complete language, to parse your data source. Your custom Java extensions generate output.

SableCC is a parser generator which generates object-oriented frameworks for building compilers, interpreters and other text parsers. SableCC keeps a clean separation between machine and user code which leads to a shorter development cycle.

Tedir is a general purpose top-down parser library for java. Unlike a parser generator, it allows efficient parsers to be constructed at run-time, rather than at compile-time, and allows parsers to be extended while running.

A parser generator for PEG grammars, built using Java, currently producing code for Java.

Blade Language Developer (or Project Blade for short) is a toolkit for creating domain specific or general programming languages. The toolkit offers a language for describing grammars, and templatable parser generator.

Covra is a project to help design compilers. C3 is a tool specialized on the easy design and construction of ASTs, it is independent of the compiler compilers or parser generator that is used. It generates Java and C# code. Require JRE 1.6.0.

Chaperon is a LALR(1) parser, which parse structured text documents and generate XML documents as output. It includes a parser generator like yacc and a regex scaner like lex. As input use Chaperon a grammar written in XML.

Coco/S is a compiler generator that takes plain EBNF grammar files and features a SAX style call back API. It is written in Java and produces a Java Scanner (Lexer) and Parser for the language described by the input grammar. Coco/S is a branch of the 2010/11 release of Coco/R for Java. While Coco/R takes an attributed grammar file, Coco/S has a callback API. This has the advantage of a clean separation between grammar (EBNF) and Compiler/Interpreter.

Open source mini Python compiler written in Java using Sablecc as parser generator.

It is basically an education Java compiler we are developing - just to gain an insight into the workings of a compiler. It is NOT meant for commercial use!! Its written in Java and uses ANTLR parser generator and the Byte Code Engineering Library extensiv

This project aims to provide a Java-Bytecode compiler for the fairly new programming language WRL and others like PHP4 and Postfix, based on the research on the SableCC parser generator and common W3C.ORG standards.

lightJacc is a small but strong grammar parser generator. It adopts a parsing strategy of its own: dynamic concurrent parsing -- which made it much stronger than LR or LL family CCs (YACC, ANTLR, etc), but still keep good performance.

Annotation based lexer and parser generator suitable for processing wide range of languages, from small domain specific languages to big ones like Java. Actions may be written directly as annotated java methods. Examples of expression language and Java5.

Monkey is a scanner and a LR(1) parser generator for object oriented languages. The platform on wich it runs is Java.

More Than Parsing is a parser generator for context free grammars defined in a BNF-like format. It generates scanners, parsers, ASTs, etc. This sf project is no longer active, development will continue in a different place.

ParGeL is an LALR(k) parser generator, which allows creation of inheritable parsers in runtime and compile time environments. ParGeL is written 100% in Java.

Waxeye is a parser generator based on parsing expression grammars (PEGs). It supports C, Java, Javascript, Python, Ruby and Scheme.

Pgj is a parser generator written in Java. It generates a paser code for some programming language according to a template.
