[antlr-interest] Illegal escape sequence in C#

I changed the "language" to be CSharp2 and that fixed the illegal escape equence (thank youl) but now the following will not compile:

        public ECMAScriptParser(ITokenStream input)
    		: this(input, new RecognizerSharedState()) {
        }

        public ECMAScriptParser(ITokenStream input, RecognizerSharedState state)
    		: base(input, state) {
    		InitializeCyclicDFAs();
        }

It seems that RecognizerSharedState is no longer recognized. Any substitutes?

Thanks again.
