Dear ANTLR users,

I am currently doing some research on parser generators for my master-thesis.  I have to find a generator that is able to parse a number of dialects of COBOL.  I already worked with ANTLR for a project last year, so I know it generates a Lexer, a parser and a treeParser.  Now my question is: is it possible to make a generalParser for the cobol-language, for the part of the language that is the same for all dialects, and then make a subclass of it for each dialect. Or is there a better way to do this?

Greetings,

Travin
