One way to describe what XCC does is by analogy with a generic parser generator, e.g. yacc or bison. Yacc needs a lexical analyzer to function properly, and that lexical analyzer is usually built with (f)lex. In the XML world, there are a few packages which fill in the role of lex (expat and libxml are the most known), but the high-level grammar parsing is usually done by a hand-written code. Writing such a parser is a tedious and error-prone task.","active":true,"categories":["devel","lang"],"maintainers":[],"variants":["universal"],"dependencies":[{"type":"build","ports":["clang-18"]}],"depends_on":[]}
