Boo uses the ANTLR parser generator to create the parser for boo source code.

The parsing rules are defined in the boo.g grammar file included with the boo source distribution.

Here is a diagram of the boo syntax, generated automatically from the boo.g file via the syndiag tool. Future Plans for using ANTLR with boo
