Is there a lex and yacc or preferably a flex and bison equivalent for Java?
There is a lex equivalent called JavaLex and a yacc equivalent called CUP. LALR(1) parser JavaLex and JavaCup: http://www.cs.princeton.edu/~appel/modern/java/ Another one, jay, is available from the university of Osnabrck, at http://www.informatik.uni-osnabrueck.de/bernd/jay/. LL(k) parser JavaCC: http://www.metamata.com/JavaCC/ ANTLR, an LL(k) parser: http://www.antlr.org/ LALR(1) parser SableCC from McGill U. http://www.sable.mcgill.ca/sablecc/index.html is generously made available under GNU license. • (Sect. 4) Where can I find a byte code obfuscator?
