[antlr-interest] StringTemplate: Infinite Recursion in anonymousconditional template.

[Swapnil Kashikar]

Thanks Terence,
I had to try out a few rearrangements of the conditional and anonymous  templates but finally I could make it work without infinite recursion.

I have been able to learn, start using and be productive with stringtemplate in a matter of weeks. Its a superb little tool.

I look forward to using antlr v3 with integrated ST and antlrworks.

Regards,
Swapnil

    This means that somehow an inner block contains itself.  Mostly  
    likely a cycle in your data structure injected into the tempaltes.   
    Can u print them not using ST correctly (using a recursive routine)?
