Description-en: lexical analyzer generator for Java
It is also a rewrite of the very useful tool JLex which was developed
by Elliot Berk at Princeton University. As Vern Paxon states for
his C/C++ tool flex : They do not share any code though.
.
JFlex is designed to work together with the LALR parser generator CUP
by Scott Hudson, and the Java modification of Berkeley Yacc BYacc/J
by Bob Jamison. It can also be used together with other parser generators
like ANTLR or as a standalone tool.
