I Built a Query Parser Over a Weekend (Part 1)
Some tasks are fun — they are self-contained, easy to conceptualize (though not always easy to build), and challenging. A few weeks ago, I spent my weekend writing a parser, and it was a lot of fun.
I’ve been writing parsers for a very long time. My book about them came out in 2010 and I've been playing with Boo since 2005. The ANTLR book was an interesting read and it taught me a lot about how to approach text parsing.
