How can I parse a C string (char *) with flex/bison?

Question

In my programming project I want to parse command line attributes using flex/bison. My program is called like this:

./prog -a "(1, 2, 3)(4, 5)(6, 7, 8)" filename

Is it possible to parse this string using flex/bison without writing it to a file and parsing that file?
