The same error happens with the grammar at the end of the Composite Grammar
page on the wiki.
http://www.antlr.org/wiki/display/ANTLR3/Composite+Grammars
The CLexer.java file is not generated for the grammars as written.
But we can generate the CLexer.java file if we comment out the SPACE rule in
grammar L and, in grammar P1, change rule spaces to
spaces: ' '+ ;
For convenience here are the files that I copied from the Composite Grammar
page.
-------------------- begin L.g --------------
lexer grammar L ;
LETTER : 'a'..'z' ;
SPACE : ' ' ;
---- begin P1.g (note: changed grammer to grammar) ---
parser grammar P1 ;
letter : LETTER ;
spaces : SPACE+ ;
--- begin P2.g (note: changed grammer to grammar) ---
parser grammar P2 ;
import P1 ;
letters : letter+ ;
--------------- begin C.g ---------
grammar C ;
import L, P2 ;
stuff : ( letters spaces )+ ;
--------- end grammar files ------------
I ran my tests on Windows XP using the command line
java -cp C:\Java\ANTLR\antlr-3.1.1.jar org.antlr.Tool -o work C.g.

George
