I haven't tried it, so this might be nonsense, but I think that YACC simply copies the emitted code from the source file to the final C file. That means that could be Objective-C code - you'd only need to change the file extension from .c to .m to compile it. As long as the emitted code is the only Objective-C and therefore not required to be parsed by YACC, I reckon it ought to work. --Graham _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list ([email protected]) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
