Time Parser

This example lives in the package org.parboiled.examples.time and is a simple demo of a parser for time specifications in various, very relaxed formats.

See the Java Examples page for instructions on how to easily run this example on your machine.

This examples demonstrates how parboiled can be used for tasks that would otherwise often be solved with regular expressions. Even though this parboiled parser description is not the shortest in terms of lines of code it certainly is very readable and therefore easily maintained, enhanced, etc.
