LLnextgen is an Extended-LL(1) parser generator. LLnextgen project is a rewrite of the LLgen parser generator by D. Grune and C.J.H. Jacobs which is part of the Amsterdam Compiler Kit (ACK).

Like all parser generators, LLnextgen takes the description of the grammar with associated actions as input, and generates a parser routine for use in compilers and other text processing programs.

LLgen, and therefore LLnextgen, extends on the LL(1) class of parser generators by allowing FIRST/FIRST conflicts and FIRST/FOLLOW conflicts to be resolved with both static and dynamic conditions.

What's New in This Release:
This release fixes a problem in LLnextgen's lexical analyser that would cause LLnextgen to segmentation fault or give incorrect results on characters outside the 128 character ASCII set.
