[antlr-interest] Parse tree in the debugger

[Jean Bovet]

Actually the problem lies in the debugger protocol. More specifically,  
we are tokenizing the string using white space which is causing the  
problem. Look in RemoteDebugEventSocketListener.

For example, an exit rule event might look like that:

event = {java.lang.String at 3056}"exitRule /Users/bovet/Folder With  
Space/DebuggerTreeTest.g x"

But it will be tokenized into:

elements = {java.lang.String[8]@3057}
[0] = {java.lang.String at 3058}"exitRule"
[1] = {java.lang.String at 2782}"/Users/bovet/Folder"
[2] = {java.lang.String at 2783}"With"
[3] = {java.lang.String at 3061}"Space/DebuggerTreeTest.g"
[4] = {java.lang.String at 3062}"x"

so the "With" becomes the name of the node. We will need to tweak the  
protocol a little bit :-)
