About:
The antlr4-cpp-runtime package provides the C++ target runtime libraries for ANTLR 4, a powerful parser generator. It enables applications to parse complex data structures and languages by generating parse trees from grammar definitions, which can then be processed with custom listeners or visitors.
Key Features:
  • Automatic parse tree generation
  • LL(*) parsing algorithm
  • Support for grammar inheritance
  • Visitor and listener tree walking patterns
Use Cases:
  • Building custom domain-specific language (DSL) parsers
  • Parsing and processing complex configuration files or data formats
  • Implementing language translators or compilers
Alternatives:
  • bison – Bison is a YACC-compatible parser generator that requires manual tree construction, whereas ANTLR 4 automatically builds parse trees.
  • flex – Flex is a lexical analyzer generator that pairs with Bison; ANTLR 4 integrates both lexing and parsing with a unified grammar.
