[antlr-interest] stop the lexer error when invoking the lexer without calling the parser

[Meena Vinod]

Hi,
  Is there a way where in if there is a lexer error,the antlr reports the error and exits without creating the parser for it ?
for ex:
In the calling program:
 
lex = LexerNew(input);
{
fprintf(stderr, 
exit(ANTLR3_ERR_NOMEM);
}
tokens = antlr3CommonTokenStreamSourceNew(ANTLR3_SIZE_HINT, TOKENSOURCE(lex));
{
fprintf(stderr, 
exit(ANTLR3_ERR_NOMEM);
} 
//want the lexer to exit here only in case of a lexer error 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
parser = ParserNew(tokens);
//calling the startrule from my .g file
parser ->starting _rule(parser);
 
Thanksif(lex == NULL)"Unable to create the lexer due to malloc() failure1\n"); if(tokens == NULL)"Out of memory trying to allocate token stream\n");
