[antlr-interest] HIDDEN works in b5 - was RE: antlrdev woes

[Jamie Briant]

My apologies. It's fixed in 3.0b5, though I'm not sure where I got b5
from because its not listed on the download page:
(http://www.antlr.org/download.html).

If I use $channel=HIDDEN, the generated parser doesn't compile in C#:

{ $channel=HIDDEN; }

C:\ps3\Internal\Projects\BuildTools\VexParser\TargetGrammarv3\VexMakeTar
getsLexer.cs(131,23): error CS0103: The name 'HIDDEN' does not exist in
the current context

Also, is there an equivalent for "newline()" or is that not needed
anymore?

Thanks!

Jamie

Yep, but you should support it only if it is alone  in the action  
(i.e., without other conditionals and so on in the action).
