  <title>Lexical Analyzer Generator for Java</title>

  <description>JFlex is a lexical analyzer generator for Java written in Java. It is

also a rewrite of the very useful tool JLex which was developed by

Elliot Berk at Princeton University. As Vern Paxson states for his

C/C++ tool flex: they do not share any code though.

​

Design goals The main design goals of JFlex are:

​

* Full unicode support

​

* Fast generated scanners

​

* Fast scanner generation

​

* Convenient specification syntax

​

* Platform independence

​

* JLex compatibility
