[Caml-list] Running several parsers in a single runtime (nethttpd, Menhir)

[Joel Reymont]

Folks,

It appears that Parsing uses global state, e.g.

let rhs_loc n = (Parsing.rhs_start_pos n, Parsing.rhs_end_pos n)

I'm building an "app server" to provide translation services to Ruby/
Rails . How would you suggest I work around the global state issue?
Would I need to switch to Menhir?

Thanks, Joel

Yes Menhir is reentrant.
