[antlr-interest] Custom object tree from tree parser?

[Jeremy Long]

Mari,

Did you ever get an answer to this? I agree a pointer or example on this
would be extremely helpful. I will be doing something similar very soon for
a project where I will be generating different nodes/objects from the input.
 Which is the better approach?

For my purposes I am planning on populating a Neo4J graph database and I've
been trying to figure out the best way to do this.
