[antlr-interest] Problem to build AST (kind of reverse AST) (Jesse McGrew)

[Atul Dambalkar]

Hi Aurelien,

Can you pass the current grammar for parsing following, 

package1 data11;
package1 data12;

package2 data21;
package2 data22;

I can give it a try to help.

Hi Jesse,


You got it, this is my need.

For sure I could have done it's parsing directly in raw C, but the exemple I
give is a simplified one... the grammar I'm working on is much more complex
but I didn't want to mix problems.

If I could solve this little one first, I would be happy !
