[antlr-interest] Manual tree construction - using existing tokensfile

[Sam Harwell]

If your target language is C#, then the tokens are declared as constants
in the parser class which are updated whenever the parser is generated.
For example, if your grammar is MyGrammar which generates
MyGrammarLexer.cs and MyGrammarParser.cs, then you could do the
following:

switch ( token.Type )
{
case MyGrammarParser.NEWLINE:
  break;
case MyGrammarParser.IDENTIFIER:
  break;
}

etc.

Subject: [antlr-interest] Manual tree construction - using existing
tokensfile

Folks,

I'm working on some code that needs to manipulate ASTs constructed  
manually except that I want to use code generated from a tree grammar  
to do it.  So I'm looking for some way to get the tokens file the tree  
grammars use bound to the code I'm using to build the trees.  I don't  
think it would be too hard to write, but does anyone have an easy way  
to do this?
