C++ SQL Parser for Hyrise

This is a SQL Parser for C++. It parses the given SQL query into C++ objects. It is developed for integration in hyrise (https://github.com/hyrise/hyrise), but can be used in other environments as well.

In March 2015 we've also written a short paper outlining discussing some development details and the integration into our database Hyrise. You can find the paper here.
