Too many people have told me about the disadvantages, but what is its advantage if any?

JavaCC doesn't require its own runtime JAR (the code it generates runs on its own), whereas ANTLR does.

JavaCC is incredibly easy to learn if you already know Java. The syntax is quite similar to standard Java syntax, and the differences are intuitive.

JavaCC can generate C++ as of last year and Sreeni (the maintainer) is improving the system.
