We're starting a project where we will need to parse python source files in a C++ application. I've used Antlr2 a while back to generate a few compilers, but this is the first time I'm using Antlr4.
It looks like the c++ antlr4 target is fairly active at https://github.com/antlr/antlr4-cpp
So, my question is basically what is the status of the Antlr4 C++ target, is it ready to start being used? To use the C++ target, what just grab the Antlr4 source, and copy the Antlr4-cpp into this tree and build?
Note, I don't need something that's absolutely stable and guaranteed never to change, just something thats basically stable enough to start being used, if there are small/moderate API changes in the future, thats perfectly fine, I understand that it looks fairly early.
If the antlr4-c++ target is NOT really ready, what parser generator would you recommend for generating a C++ target python parser?
thanks
