[antlr-interest] C in Honey Badger?

Hi Stephen, 

I briefly mentioned this in another email. I'm planning to do a C++ port, but I'm implementing it more for the exercise in expressive C++ than anything else. There will almost certainly be a dependency on boost's Thread library, pervasive use of STL, and the initial release will probably use a handful of C++11 features.

Chris, Terence and Sam,

I would also be interested in what sort of time line there will be for a C/C++ target.

Given that C++ can be called from C, the real question I have is not will there be a C (only) target...

... but, rather, how many and how well controlled will the C++ target's dependencies be?

That is, will any "external" dependencies be cleanly re-implementable for, for example, running inside the PHP engine?

Regards,

Stephen Gaito
