[antlr-interest] Can't recoginze a file start with HIDDENlexersince 3.1b1

[Ronghui Yu]

I tried L-factoring and syntax predicate, but I couldn't remove all errors yet. One of the parsers has almost 1000 rules, does it reach ANTLR limit?
Anyway, I think I need to follow the method to deal with rules one by one.
Thanks

Did you look at
