Hi Jim, Hi All I searched but still am struggling to really get the parsertree object for my grammar.
My goal is to get the parser tree object just as being shown in the GUI and put its elements in another object that I need to construct based upon the tree. But after a lot of search I still have no clue how do I get the ParserTree object with a *hierarchy of rules* and leaf nodes as the actual *tokens* of my program! Many thanks for any help with this.
