Subject: [metaas-dev] Grammar of AS3
Message-ID: <97DE3995-2302-4147-BBC8-43B1E21141EE@yy.ics.keio.ac.jp>

Hello everyone

I am now looking for precise grammar of ActionScript3.
I found the definition of grammar for ANTLR as following

http://svn.badgers-in-foil.co.uk/metaas/trunk/src/main/antlr/org/asdt/core/internal/antlr/AS3.g

Also, I found the sentence as "metaas was originally based on the  
ActionScript 3 ANTLR grammer from the ASDT project, though the metaas  
fork is now significantly different. Authorship of the original as3  
grammar "

I clicked the link of original as3 grammar but is was removed.

So, do you know any information about correct as3's grammar?


Best Regards

Well, the metaas fork of the grammer was actually a little more complete
than the original (which, to be fair, was in quite early stages of development
itself).  It's still not complete though.

Since the Flex SDK is open source these days, you could probably consider
their parser implementation as the authoritative 'spec',

Thank you for your advice.

It is good idea to analyze parser of FlexSDK.

Great thanks.
