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.

General Usage

Prerequisites:

• bison (tested with v3.0.2)
• flex (tested with v2.5.5)

The parser library code is created in build/. To create the full parser code run

make build

To use the SQL Parser in your own code, you only need to include SQLParser.h and build+link all the source files from the parser with your project. See hyrise/src/lib/access/sql/SQLQueryParser.cpp for how it's used in Hyrise.

Important: Run tests and add tests for new features.

make test
