You're welcome.

Just to be clear Mike, regardless of which ANTLR tool executable you
choose[1*], it will happilly generate Lexers/Parser/TreeParsers in
*any* of the languages that ANTLR supports (i.e. Java, C++ and C#).
All you need is the appropriate runtime library for your chosen target
language and you can build this using full ANTLR distro (plus any
relevant updates).

I use the Java version of the tool for instance and I generate
Lexers/Parser/TreeParsers in Java, C++ and C#. I could do the same
using the .NET and gcj versions too. In fact, the output should be
identical if I run my grammar file through any of them.

Cheers,

Micheal

[1*]   There are currently 3 executables that I know of:
        - the standard one for Java and, 
        - the J# recompile/port for .NET and,
        - the gcj recompile/port for Linux systems 
          (gcj can probably build ANTLR exes for other systems).
