[antlr-interest] StringTemplate : delimter other than dollar sign?

[Paul Whitaker]

Luis,

Thanks for the reply and the tip! I will try that, although it still may not
be effective since I am working within an HTML editor. This gives me hope
that there's potential to change the symbol though. It would appear that I
could create a new Lexer for, say, the pound symbol as a delimiter... Any
tips on getting started with that, before I dive in? I've never worked with
Antlr before this project.

Thanks again!
Paul

Hi Paul,

You can use angle brackets instead of dollar signs. Use the following
constructor:

StringTemplateGroup group = new StringTemplateGroup("sqlstuff", "/tmp",
typeof(AngleBracketTemplateLexer));

Regards

Luis

I'm using the C# port of StringTemplate. Working this library into a auto
sales project, the dollar sign is not a good choice due to frequent currency
references. I've noticed the symbol seems to be interwoven in the template
code. Has anybody changed this character? Is there an effective way to make
sure that I change it in all the right places? I would like to try the pound
symbol instead (#).

Thanks,
