[antlr-interest] Re: cgram and SEMI! usage

[jenlhunt2003]

Yes, after posting, I thought to look at GnuCParser.g and sure enough the ! wasn't there.

It's probably not as simple as going through and replacing SEMI! with SEMI in StdCParser.g 
since SEMI! is used in some places in GnuCParser.g.  I guess I would have to look at it on a 
rule by rule basis.

Q. Do you think SEMI is the only token that might have this problem?  If so, I might just try 
to fix StdCParser.g.

On the otherhand, I wouldn't mind using GnuCParser.g, except that doing so about doubles my 
chances of making an error in going to CPP if I still have to worry about StdCParser.g.

Q. When one grammar (GnuCParser.g) extends another (StdCParser.g) does a particular rule in the 
new one (like rule declaration) completely replace the rule from the old one, or does it somehow inherit 
from the old one?  If GnuCParser.g pretty much replaces what's in StdCParser.g, then I will concentrate 
my efforts on GnuCParser.g.

Since I'm not well grounded yet on this, I would appreciate any suggestions.

And, thanks for your efforts on this grammar in the first place.
