[antlr-interest] insert token in lexer?

[Putrycz, Erik]

Is it possible to insert a token in a lexer rule?

On a specific rule, I'd like to change the type of the token with a
$setType(...) and I'd also would like to insert another token.

I know I could do that with a TokenStream but I'd rather avoid writing
that in Java if possible... 

 

Thanks,
