[antlr-interest] Re: line number counter reset

[tdknghi <nk.truong at student.qut.edu.au>]

  Hi there,

Thanks a lot for your response. However, I don't think copy the line 
number of the modifier to the type token would be appropriate. As if the 
students type varaible declaration like below. The line number will not 
be correct:
   int
       i = 5;

Do you have any further suggestions?

Thanks.
