[antlr-interest] Antlr-2.7.6 with Visual Studio 8.0

[Mike Ventham]

Mark,

If it is any help, I built a static library (.lib) using 2.7.6 with 
the command line.

/Od /I "C:\Development\antlr\antlr-2.7.6\lib\cpp\\" /D "WIN32" /D 
"_DEBUG" /D "_LIB" /D "_CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE" /D 
"_VC80_UPGRADE=0x0600" /D "_MBCS" /FD /EHsc /RTC1 /MDd /Zc:wchar_t- 
/Zc:forScope- /GR- /Fp".\Debug/antlr_lib.pch" /Fo".\Debug/" 
/Fd".\Debug/" /FR".\Debug\\" /W3 /nologo /c /Z7 /errorReport:prompt

There is a change in TokenStreamRewriteEngine.cpp (already submitted to Ter)

#ifndef NO_STATIC_CONSTS
const size_t TokenStreamRewriteEngine::MIN_TOKEN_INDEX = 0;
const int TokenStreamRewriteEngine::PROGRAM_INIT_SIZE = 100;
#endif
