Good afternoon;
Stefen, I ran the System verilog BNF through the hyperlinker.
There are many productions not referenced in the document
(as seen by unlinked definitions, e.g. source_text is
never referenced, udp_declaration is never defined.)
Are there any tools that can analyze BNF for omitted productions,
shift/reduce conflicts, grammar complexity, etc? At least
if this was in yacc form, we could use bison to find these
kind of flaws early.
Any thoughts on a different format? Any thoughts on trying to
use tools to analyze the language?
