Dapar is a universal parsing library written in C. It will interpret any grammar you give it in a BNF-like format, and constructs a matching expression tree for any given input. This makes developing a new parser for any language simple and reliable.

Includes an ABNF parser, EBNF parser, XML parser and algebraic math parser.

Features

  • Small and portable (all C code)
  • Understands ASCII, Unicode, UTF-8, and UTF-32 input
  • Automatic ambiguity detection and debugging
  • Implements a superset of all common BNF features found in EBNF, ABNF and W3-BNF
  • Example parser for ABNF: Augmented BNF for Syntax Specifications (RFC 5234)
  • Example parser for EBNF: Extended BNF (ISO 14977)
  • Example parser for mathematics (simple and algebraic)
  • Example parser for XML 1.0 (Fifth Edition)
