Convert a grammar from one for to another
Reads a grammar from stdin and converts the grammar to/from Antlr version 4 syntax. The original grammar must be for a supported type (Antlr2, Antlr3, Bison, W3C EBNF, Lark). The input and output are Parse Tree Data.
trconvert [-t <type>]
This command converts a grammar from one type to another. Most conversions will handle only simple syntax differences. More complicated scenarios are supported depending on the source and target grammar types. For example, Bison is converted to Antlr4, but the reverse is not implemented yet.
trconvert
takes an option target type. If it is not used, the default
is to convert the input of whatever type to Antlr4 syntax. The output
of trconvert
is a parse tree containing the converted grammar.
