bellwethr: We're all set with implementations for Windows and Linux. There is no free/OSS version for Mac OS X, however. We need to make one from the ground up.

Hmm. Well, I'm not an OS X user, so I'm not going to be much help on that front.

That seems like it's out of scope for OpenPIE, though. An OSS OS X Bluetooth stack and driver should be a project in it's own right.

I chose JavaCC because it is the parser generator that i am most familiar with. However if you could elaborate on why Jflex would be a better choice for us, perhaps we could switch over. It's still early enough in the project to do so.

RE: JavaCC vs Jflex

JFlex has some serious advantages vs javacc. It's much more flexible in how you can incorporate your own code into the tokenization phase, it generates a cleaner parser with fewer added class files (JFlex only creates one class file for your parser), etc.

Other than that, it's pretty straight forward to write grammars for JFlex.

Here's an example:

I am a computer science student with ample programming experience (mostly C but some java) and I am just getting interested in this project. I have programming theory background as well as compiler and AI experience that I might be able to bring to the table.... Just thought I would express my interest if you guys are in need of another brain or pair of hands. Question
