[antlr-interest] Catching errors

[Peter Kronenberg]

How can I trap parsing errors from Antlr?  When there is a syntax error
in the expression, I get something like this on System.err:

line 1:16: unexpected token: 80

But in my Java code, the call to the parser returns with no errors. The
only indication that there is a problem is that parser.getAST() returns
null.  So I can detect that there is an error, but I'd like to be able
to trap the text of the error so I can display it properly in the
client.
