Hi all,
Suppose I got this rule
selectList : displayedColumn (COMMA displayedColumn )* ->
^(SELECT_LIST displayedColumn+ );
I know antlr (v3) is smart and sees that 'displayedColumn' repeats at
least once, and manages the list for me in the rewrite rule.
But suppose I am writing a translator, and really need thosesCOMMAS
tokens, how should I do the rewrite rule to include the COMMA's ?
Right now I made a stupid hack:
selectList : displayedColumn (COMMA otherColumn)* -> ^(SELECT_LIST
displayedColumn (COMMA otherColumn)* )
;
otherColumn : displayedColumn; //dummy rule
But as I said, I feel a bit stupid and wonder if is there an easier
way to do this...
Thanks in advance,
Miguel Ping
