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](http://torpedro.com/paper/HyriseSQL-03-2015.pdf).
### General Usage
**Prerequisites:**
* [bison](https://www.gnu.org/software/bison/) (tested with v3.0.2)
* [flex](http://flex.sourceforge.net/) (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`](https://github.com/hyrise/hyrise/blob/master/src/lib/access/sql/SQLQueryParser.cpp) for how it's used in Hyrise.
**Important:** Run tests and add tests for new features.
```
make test
```
