Hello,

As anyone build a compiler (or just a parser) for procedural languages such
Fortran, C, Pascal, Cobol... using the Eiffel parsing library? I'd like
to have some feedbacks concerning the good and the not-so-good aspects
of this library for that purpose. How powerfull is it compare to Lex and
Yacc?

thanks for all answer,

alain.


(i'm sorry, but i forgot my .signature in my previous posting, that's
why i repost it. oops.)
