[antlr-interest] antlr suitable for xml languages? (like bpel andare there existing grammaires)

[Scott Stanchfield]

Sure, but I'd recommend looking at ANTXR, which is a fork I made from ANTLR
specifically for XML parsing. I use it for several projects at work and it's
saved me a metric butload of time.
 
See http://javadude.com/tools/antxr
 
You need to write a grammar, but it has a more xml feel than ANTLR and you
don't need to write the scanner (you can use SAX or XMLPULL for the scanner)
 
Eventually I plan to write a base-grammar creator that takes an XSD or DTD
as input and creates a basic ANTXR grammar, but I haven't had the time...
 
Feel free to email me with any questions!

Hi,

im new to antlr (to parsing at all for being honest). 

I am planning to create a parser for the bpel language. Now my questions (as
mentioned in the subject):

1. can i parse xml languages like bpel, wsdl, xhtml or soap messages with
antlr? or is it more simple just to use some xml parsers?

2. if using antlr for parsing bpel, does somebody know existing grammair
files for this language?

 

thx a lot in advance

greetings

dominik
