[antlr-interest] ANTLR v3 tree construction :)

[Anthony Youngman]

Talk to Rob Colquhoun, myself or Jim Idle if you want a query language -
we've been working on that sort of thing for forty years (not
personally, but the technology's that old). Monty might have some ideas
too.

If you want a manipulation language, you might be out of luck. SQL tried
that sort of thing, Pick decided it was too complicated to be worth
trying.

Cheers,
Wol

Ouch. The goal is to provide a declarative query/path
language... on second thoughts, I guess existing ANTLR
syntax is powerful enough to get the job done... I'll
have to research more to come up with convinving
arguments for/against the idea.
