[antlr-interest] Fwd: Re: StringTemplate v4 and C# fails for me at step zero [Stefan.Maetje at esd-electronics.com]

Hi,

in the light of the last comments on this topic I've detected that I did 
forget the CC: to the mailing list when I wrote my answer. So for completeness 
forward my answer to the mailing list now.

Greetings,

Hi,

please note that ANTLR 3.4 uses StringTemplate 4 (ST4) internally but the 
generated code is still using StringTemplate 3 (ST3).

There was a discussion on the mailing list around 04 November last year. Look 
for mails of Sam Harwell on the topic "StringTemplate and Antrl3.runtime 
version mess on C# target"

The wiki tells about the versions and releases here:

http://www.antlr.org/wiki/display/ANTLR3/Antlr3CSharpReleases

I hope that helps,
	Stefan
