[antlr-interest] Passing information into the parser

Hi,
I have a requirement, where in before starting the parsing, i need
to tell the parser whether the first token is T_FUNCTION / T_TRIGGER(say
callType). (i.e) this token is not available as part of the text to be
parsed. In Bison, it is just declared with %token T_FUNCTION and %token
T_TRIGGER. The scanner makes sure that it emits the callType token before it
emits the tokens to be parsed. Although, i am able to come up with some ways
to do this, they are too ugly.
Can someone provide me a clean way of passing information into
the parser and make the scanner emit that as the first token, even before
the actual tokens are emitted? I am trying to do this in C-Language target.
Thanks in Advance,
Gokul.
