问题
Is there a place I can find Backus–Naur Form or BNF grammars for popular languages? Whenever I do a search I don't turn up much, but I figure they must be published somewhere. I'm most interested in seeing one for Objective-C and maybe MySQL.
回答1:
you have to search on tools used to create grammars: "lex/yacc grammar", "antlr grammar" "railroad diagram"
http://www.antlr3.org/grammar/list.html
Here's some grammar files
objective-c

python

javascript

FWIW, the MySQL grammar file (mysql-server/sql/sql_yacc.y) is open source and browseable at launchpad.net (though it's a bit slow and I got an error when I tried to pull up the specific file).
Also, a snapshot of the whole MySQL Server source is downloadable from dev.mysql.com.

There are some links from w:BNF#Language Grammars.
- BNF Grammars for SQL-92, SQL-99 and SQL-2003
I also found a page that lists grammars for Objective C.
- Objective-C grammar for Lex/Yacc Flex/Bison
- Reference Manual for the Objective-C Language

IIRC, BNF grammars are just different enough from what yacc/bison want as input to be really annoying :) If you intend to feed these files into a parser generator, you may want to look for files in the appropriate format. I recall seeing such files for Java, JavaScript and C++ at one point. Probably as part of Eclipse, Firefox and GCC, respectively, but I can't remember for sure. I would assume you can find pretty much any parser input file by finding an open source project that uses that language.
