Paul,
I should have thought to mention this when I first heard you were
working on using a compiler-generator for JDE parsing. If you don't
already know about it, you may find it useful to refer to the Java
grammar distributed with JavaCC, which can be found by visiting
http://www.metamata.com/JavaCC/external.html and searching for heading
"Grammars for Java 1.2".
Even though this will obviously not be in exactly the format you
need, it may be closer to the right form than the published Java BNF,
since JavaCC is yet another compiler-compiler.
Cheers, -CR
(Btw, I have used JavaCC and like it a lot. It is a little hard to
learn at first, but very elegant and flexible.)
