That's a point of discussion. The functionality of grammar
inheritance will be provided in some form, but the current approach is
unloved. I'd like to see equivalent functionality provided via a
tree-structured repository (translators/grammars/rules) accessible
through a browser in an IDE. The idea is that you should be able to
import say, a lexer, "expression" and its subrules from a parser
grammar, and other rules as appropriate when constructing a new
translator. A language developer's workbench/IDE (possibly built on
top of Eclipse) is likely to be a key feature of ANTLR 3 and this
would be one of the support features.
