[antlr-interest] Combining multiple tokens

[Jeffrey Cameron]

I have two parser rules in my grammar where I am trying to wrap the
complete, concatenated text of a series of tokens into a single token for a
tree grammar.  The rules look like this:
*#1:*

cell : (~(VBAR|EOL))* ;

in this case I would like to write something like this:

cell : (~(VBAR|EOL))* -> TABLECELL[$cell.text] ;

but when I put that syntax in I get an exception.

*#2:*

line_to_eol : ( options {greedy=false;} : . )* EOL ;

I would like to do something like the same as above but ignore the EOL
token, so something like this:

line_to_eol : stuff+=( options {greedy=false;} : . )* EOL ->
TEXT[$stuff.text] ;

Can someone tell me when I am doing wrong in here and how to correct it? I'm
a bit stuck here and every other part of my grammar is working as expected.

Thanks in advance
