[ragel-users] json parser in ragel

[Adrian Thurston]

Hello Arne,

This style of parser, where you implement recursive structures by 
calling parsing functions, is something that I imagined you could with 
ragel, but I never actually tried it out. It's nice to see that it can 
work. Thanks for sharing it!

Question for you: If you had a dynamically-sized stack for fcall/fret 
would you have used that mechanism? Or would you still have prefered to 
separate the parser out into different functions?

Cheers,
  Adrian
