Show HN: Yantra – an LALR(1) parser generator for C++

Original description

Yantra is a C++ parser generator: lexer, parser, and AST walker all generated from one tool. It builds the whole AST first, then walks it. Most LALR parser generators (Yacc, Bison, Lemon) run your semantic actions during parsing, as each rule reduces, bottom-up. That means at the time a rule's action runs, you don't yet know what its parent looks like. This pushes a lot of grammars toward hand-built AST classes and a separate walking pass whenever you need to look ahead into siblings or defer a decision until more context is available. On the other hand, Yantra always builds the whole AST firs...
