   ANTLR has an edge over JavaCC in that it can produce parser source   
   code in various languages, whereas JavaCC is limited to producing   
   parsers in Java.   
      
   That said, JavaCC+JJTree provides a fine solution for projects that   
   can use a parser in Java, and there are lots of example JavaCC   
   grammars out there to learn from.
