Hello all,
maybe someone can help me to get this done with ANTLR 3.2
My file has a header starting with 'test', some comments and then
several blocks named 'Page 1', 'Page 2' etc. with integers, i.e.
test This is a comment and
we are not interested in.
Today is friday.
Page 1:
123
456
789
I want to have a rule that consumes everything of the header until the
word 'Page'.
'Page' should not be consumed by the header, it be consumed by another rule.
So I tried the following:
grammar TestNot;
options {
language = Java;
}
rule :
file;
file :
header PAGE INT ':' INT+ EOF;
header :
'test' ~PAGE;
PAGE :
'Page';
INT :
DIGIT+;
fragment
DIGIT :
'0'..'9';
Any idea? Thanks in advance.
