I am looking for Yacc and Lex for Windows programming.  I know there are
byacc, bison, and flex for DOS. But do they work if I incorporate the code
they generate into a Windows application or Windows DLL?

Do such tools exist (commercially or in public domain)? Any information is
greatly appreciated.

Please respond to news, I'm in need of such a beast as well.

Currently, I am looking at porting Allan Holub's LeX and occs
to versions that will do the above.  It's _very_ well documented
(a big book) and it's the one I have with me here in Kiev,
Ukraine -- and, to be frank, I'm bored.

If anyone knows if A. Holub has a net address, I'd appreciate it. If
he allows and if I complete the task, I could post results to some
archive site. [ He might not -- he charges $60 for source on disk. ]

We have recently purchased PCYACC 4.0 from Abraxas Software, Inc. I haven't
had the time to try it out with Windows yet, but according to the docs
this version works with Windows 3.1, standard and DPMI.

The package also comes with PCLEX, and the "Professional" version (which we
bought) comes with complete grammars, lexical analyzers and symbol table
management for several languages including: 

	ANSI C
	K&R C
	ISO Pascal
	FORTRAN
	dBASE III/Plus and IV
	SQL
	C++ (1.0 and 2.0)
	Smalltalk-80
	APPLE HyperTalk
	C&M Prolog
	YACC
	LEX
	FORTRAN-77
	COBOL
	ADA
	VHDL
	GW-BASIC
	SGML
	ASN
	RPG
	PL1
	DCA
	POSTSCRIPT

The DOS Professional version is $495,-; Personal version (only ANSI C grammar
included) $249,-.

I'm in no way affiliated with Abraxas, and, like I said, have not done much
with PCYACC yet, but at least the first impression of the package is good.
