I am working on a program that will be able to parse PovRay .pov files.
This program will be written in C++.

What would be the best method for defining a C++ class hierarchy to
store all POV objects?

I have heard that the POV-team plans a movement to C++, so they may be
facing the same question right now...?

Any "links" available?

Can you use BNF or Flex&Bison or YACC or something similar to generate
the parser for you? The definitions are very well presented in the
POV-Ray documentation.
