[antlr-interest] Overriding error reporting in ANTLR3 C runtime

[Ramon Verbruggen]

>From the C API documentation on http://www.antlr.org/api/C => Using the ANTLR3 C Target:

Implementing Customized Methods
Unless you wish to create your own tree structures using the built in ANTLR AST rewriting notation, you will rarely need to override the default implementation of runtime methods. The exception to this will be the syntax err reporting method, which is essentially a stub function that you will usually want to provide your own implementation for. You should consider the built in function displayRecognitionError() as an example of where to start as there can be no really useful generic error message display. 

I hope this helps,

Ramon
