[antlr-interest] TokenStreamRecognitionException

[sunjigang8 at netscape.net]

I defined a token in lexer as  (  MINUS = "-"; ). I use ( minus:MINUS; ) in parser to parser the symbol "-". While TokenStreamRecognitionException was thrown and popped up a window says ( unexpected char: '-' ). I think the char is recongnised but could not form the expected token. 

Literals in lexer are consistent with that of parser, that is,  ( public const int MINUS = 31; ) are generated at the beginning of both lexer and parser.

This must be a silly question. I wish you could give a clue.
