...which, being lazy, I would not do from scratch. 

Instead, I'd use the Java version of the Coco/R package, which generates 
the lexer and parser as Java source within a framework. Unlike some 
similar tools, you're almost encouraged to rewrite the framework to suit 
your requirements. This is quite short and written in standard Java, so 
modifying it is very easy.
