javaCC

Hi..

I have this parser javacc.

I give the file IDL.jj as input to this parser & get the following message.

>>javacc IDL.jj
Java Compiler Compiler Version 1.1 (Parser Generator)
Copyright (c) 1996-1999 Sun Microsystems, Inc.
Copyright (c) 1997-1999 Metamata, Inc.
(type "javacc" with no arguments for help)
Reading from file IDL.jj . . .
File "ASCII_CharStream.java" does not exist. Will create one.
Parser generated successfully.


Now, my question is - How and from where the parser comes to know that ASCII_CharStream.java file is reqired and needs to be generated (It should be from IDL.jj itself, but i could not find it). Is there any specific syntex in which it has been specified? What if i want to carry some test changes in ASCII_CharStream.java? How do i go about it?

I am totally new to this tool, will apreciate your help and suggestive links on the same.

Regards

Looks like you have a really old version of JavaCC. You should probably upgrade. Also, this forum is probably not the best place to get help with JavaCC.
