OracleAS TopLink uses ANTLR for EJB QL parsing. Antlr (ANother Tool for Language Recognition), is a language tool that provides a framework for constructing recognizers, compilers, and translators from grammatical descriptions containing C++ or Java actions. The ANTLR parser and translator generator is fully in the public domain.

The Document Object Model (DOM) is a specification that defines some programming language-neutral interfaces that can be used to manipulate XML and HTML documents. W3C maintains this specification. W3C also provides a Java "binding" for these interfaces. OracleAS TopLink uses this "binding" to parse and manipulate XML documents.
