First, I wanted to write a Java class like swing JEditorPane with
mathematical writing ability.
Then use NetBeans platform to build applications with this extended
class.
I planned two stages :
- Extend swing.text to display and navigate in equations.
- Write a parser for user entries.
After having solved some swing.text bugs, I reached the first Swing
stage. I also worked with javafx WebKit implementation after having
solved a small bug with MathML display.
Now in both of these approachs, I need to complete the parser stage :
Parse the user entries to build the model tree in live (not after a
compile process). My models are Lyx or TeXMacs mathematical editors.
In a first approach, I'm using JavaCC to test my grammars (AsciiMath,
Tex, TexMacs, ... naturel languages).
As I am a NetBeans user, I had hope that I could use NetBeans parsing as
model. That why the post arrived just at the right time : may be one of
its parsing process could help me ?
All this because one day, I dreamed that one day I could used NetBeans
as Mathematical text editor :-)

In fact, I'm interested in the Netbeans parsing process as model for
an
application. That why I was really interested by this blog post.
The first time, I read the tutorial many years ago, I thought that
Netbeans parsing was based only on JavaCC and that its API was
simply
exposed to NetBeans Platform Users.
Thanks for these clarifications. I will read both documents again.

Well, what parser NetBeans uses itself is a completely different
question to what parser you should use in your own NetBeans
Platform
application.
If you read the blog, you'll see the needs of a programming
language
editor, i.e., you need to do more than parsing, you need to do a
lot
more than that and so depending on the language NetBeans has other
kinds of plumbing beneath the parsers to make things work.
Depending on what language you're using, you'll also need more
than
only a parser.

Hi,
After reading the blog post : Why Does Apache NetBeans Need Its
Own
Parsers ?
https://blogs.apache.org/netbeans/
I'm a bit confuse about netbeans' parsers state of art.
Is this tutorial still current ?
https://platform.netbeans.org/tutorials/nbm-javacc-parser.html
Which parser should we use with netbeans platform ?
Best regards.
