|    precedences vs. hierarchy    |

      From: bassobajo@gmail.com              Hi all,              for specifying the syntax of operator expressions       with multiple levels of precedences,       there are essentially two approaches:       (i) by precedence and associativity declarations, and       (ii) by a hierarchy of non-terminals.       Both approaches have been known and in use for decades.              My question is:       Are there trends in the public opinion       in favor of one of them over the other?       Or are they equally respected approaches?              Best regards,       Andreas              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
