[antlr-interest] A little problem in actions

[Anakreon]

Hello all.
I'd like to report a little problem which I am facing.

Consider this rule in a tree parser:
expression
   :
   ...rules
   |! #(EQ_COMP eq_comp1:expression { #eq_comp1 = getDefault(#eq_comp1);} 
eq_comp2:expression { #eq_comp2 = getDefault(#eq_comp2);
//int code = EQ_COMP;
#expression = #([EQ_COMP, "="], #eq_comp1, #eq_comp2);
   ;

When the produced parser is compiled, this error apears.
========================================================
Found 1 semantic error compiling 
"/home/e/code/java/aspParser/build/src/gr/omadak/leviathan/asp/VbsTree.java"
expression_AST = (AST)astFactory.make( (new 
ASTArray(3)).add(astFactory.create(tmp33_AST,"=")).add(eq_comp1_AST).add(eq_comp2_AST));
Semantic Error: No applicable overload for the method named "create" was found 
in type "antlr.ASTFactory". Perhaps you wanted the overloaded version 
"antlr.collections.AST create(antlr.Token $1, java.lang.String $2);" instead?
=========================================================

T guess this happens because the EQ_COMP in the action is miss taken as the 
token EQ_COMP in the matching rule.
The problem is easily solved if instead i rewrite the rule:
expression
   :
   ...rules
   |! #(EQ_COMP eq_comp1:expression { #eq_comp1 = getDefault(#eq_comp1);} 
eq_comp2:expression { #eq_comp2 = getDefault(#eq_comp2);
int code = EQ_COMP;
#expression = #([code, "="], #eq_comp1, #eq_comp2);
   ;

However this is awkward.
