Porting to Delphi: Problem with JavaCC Code...

["Mario Alejandro Montoya C." <ma...@hotmail.com>]

This is my first post...

I'm porting from DotLucene to Delphi the Lucene engine... everything is 
going well except the files marked like a JavaCC generated code. I 
understand this is machine generated code, so, i think is hard to debug and 
test if the port was ok...

- Exist a JavaCC like generator for delphi that produce the same results?

- Can replace this code with Regular Expressions ? By the way, why is not 
code with regular expressions in first place? Any issue with this or is 
simply a preference? Why from 1.2-1.3 was change the more clear code in 
favor of JavaCC?

- Exist a standar way to test if a port was sucesfully, ie, produce equal 
results?

Thanks for your time...

Mario Alejandro M.

No, because regular expressions cannot parse nested expressions like this: 
(a AND (b or c))

There are unit tests in the src/test directory for QueryParser and 
StandardTokenizer.
