Hey folks!
I'm searching for a working Ruby parser. I found:
coco-ruby 1.0.0
antlr(antlr3rubytarget)
I tried both but they didn't worked for me. (Perhaps I did something
wrong...)
Does anyone of you uses / knows a working parser for Ruby?
Thanks for your help.

I made my own Ghost Wheel library for generating parsers:
http://rubyforge.org/projects/ghostwheel/
It's still young, so I'm sure it has rough edges but I've used it for a few tasks now. The documentation hasn't been written yet, but I did show a sample of usage on my blog:
You may also want to look at the Treetop parser:
http://rubyforge.org/projects/treetop
Hope that helps.

Parser generator (for any grammar specified) or a _ruby_ parser?

Thank you very much for your help.
I forgot to say that I also tried dhaka and racc (but thanks Daniel).
There were problems getting them to run, so that I throwed them away to
look for a working parser.
Again, perhaps I'm just incompetend 
to use them.
@James: Ghost Wheel looks very interesting. I will try it out. Also
TreeTop looks interesting!

Parser generator for Ruby Code
Example:
class X
def y()
puts "y"
end
end
Shall be parsed into a tree so that each element like class/method
definition, arguments, parameters, variables... has its own leaf inside
the tree.

I you want some help getting started, I've been learning both Treetop
and Dhaka for the last month or so and would be happy to help you get
started. (Not that I'm necessarily any good at them, but I've made
them work at least.) Ghost Wheel look nice, so I might try learning
that too. I can be found loitering on irc://irc.freenode.net/#rubyunix

Check out the post at <ruby_parser 1.0: a Ruby Parser written in Ruby;
for the status on a pure Ruby parser for Ruby.
I believe that Nathan Sobo is planning to write a Ruby parser in Treetop.
Much easier than trying to do it with a limited-lookahead parser like racc,
even though Ryan seems to have achieved it :-). And obviously MRI does...

Hi Daniel,
I just found Treetop and I was waiting for such a lib for quite a time
now, not able to code it myself
Can you compare Treetop and Dharka ?
Which one do you prefer ?

I wouldn't, and I wrote it.
Seriously, ruby_parser is slow, ugly, and ... ugly.
Look at ParseTree instead. ruby_parser will catch up, but it'll take time.
