Flex (fast lexical analyzer generator) is a free and open-source software alternative to lex. [2] It is a computer program that generates lexical analyzers (also known as "scanners" or "lexers").
The commercial version supported analysis of PHP and Java code. In order to identify security vulnerabilities that are based on second-order data flows or misplaced security mechanisms, it used abstract syntax trees, control-flow graphs, and context-sensitive taint analysis [7] It could automatically detect 200 different vulnerability types, code quality issues and misconfiguration weaknesses.
A lexical token is a string with an assigned and thus identified meaning, in contrast to the probabilistic token used in large language models. A lexical token consists of a token name and an optional token value. The token name is a category of a rule-based lexical unit. [2]
The RE/flex lexical analyzer generator accepts an extended syntax of Flex lexer specifications as input. The RE/flex specification syntax is more expressive than the traditional Flex lexer specification syntax and may include indentation anchors, word boundaries, lazy quantifiers (non-greedy, lazy repeats), and new actions such as wstr() to ...
Doxygen supports output in many formats including: HTML, CHM, RTF, PDF, LaTeX, PostScript and man page. Doxygen can generate inheritance diagrams for C++ classes. For more advanced diagrams and graphs, Doxygen can use the "dot" tool from Graphviz .
Ragel is a finite-state machine compiler and a parser generator.Initially Ragel supported output for C, C++ and Assembly source code, [4] later expanded to support several other languages including Objective-C, D, Go, Ruby, and Java. [5]
Cassandre is a free open source software for computer assisted qualitative data analysis and interpretation in humanities and social sciences. [1] Although it refers, like other CAQDAS-software, to Grounded Theory Method, it also allows to conduct discourse analysis or quantitative content analysis. [2]
In computer programming, the lexer hack is a solution to parsing context-sensitive grammars such as C, where classifying a sequence of characters as a variable name or a type name requires contextual information, by feeding contextual information backwards from the parser to the lexer.
