Hi,

In my project I got help from a guy to handle output from clearcase. He
used antlr 3.x to do this. Now I am into the stuff of correcting bugs in
the code and need to know why things is not working. Ok enough with
background :-)

I open the grammerfile ( with both lexer and parser in it) in antlrworks
from command line in windows. Then I generate and run debug. Input text
panel opens up and I select my grammar file as input and error as my
'start rule' to debug. I use windows CRLF as line ending since it is
windows :-)

I press OK and I see some operation in progress and after seconds I get
the message:

Cannot launch the debugger and Time-out waiting to connect to remote
parser.

Hmmm what step am I missing out here. I have started my application in
debug mode ( containin the generated files source was the grammar file)
but I still get the same message.

any hints are very much welcome!

cheers,

//mike
