- I am interested to hear from anyone who has constructed a new
- language or created an interpreter or compiler using C++.
-
- My main concern: are there any tips to creating, for example,
- a Visual BASIC or REXX-like language using C++ as opposed to
- using C or the lex/yacc combination? Are there any books that
- detail how the object-oriented nature of C++ allows for easier
- creation of grammar-parsers or is the process of building an
- interpreter or compiler pretty much the same in C and C++?
-
-
- BONUS QUESTION: How would someone go about creating a parser
- for the Windows 95 / NT environment?
-
- I am not asking for a treatise on this particular subject because
- 90% of you probably couldn't care less; I'm merely wondering
- if there are any texts or articles that deal with this topic.
-
- Thanks!
