- I am currently working on a project using lex and yacc. The situation is
- that I have to develop this program on a DOS env and then port it to an
- UNIX env when it becomes available. I have managed to get hold of FLEX and
- BYACC and want to compile and implement them on DOS (using BCC) and then port
- them to the SunOS Unix. So far I have gone through the flex source modules
- and managed to compile them with BCC. I found that the documentation
- that came with the flex archive was pretty good. Although I haven't yet
- "made" flex.exe I am hoping that I won't have too much problem. (I have
- been compiling using ANSI C and all the portability flags on BCC set).
-
- I am now looking at the source modules for byacc, and I am a bit lost. The
- documentation in the code is scarce and not easy to follow. I accept that
- the people who made the code available are not obliged to provide good
- documentation. But I am a bit lost as to how to go about compiling this code
- with all the portability considerations I have mentioned before. The byacc
- pacakage does include a byacc.exe file. I haven't tried it out yet but again,
- the porting problem will be there.
-
- I am hoping someone out there has had some experience with this sort of stuff.
- I am relatively new to this stuff and would really appreciate all the help
- I can get.
-
- Thanks in advance.
-
- Joydip.
