Abstract

An incremental development environment for unrestricted context-free languages is described and tested. Our proposal includes a parse generator, an incremental facility to make the overall parsing efficient in the context of program development; and a graphical interface that provides a complete set of customization and trace facilities. The tool, baptized ICE after Incremental Context-Free Environment, appears to be superior to other general context-free parsing environments and is comparable to deterministic ones, when the context is not ambiguous.
