Hi Nishanth,
Please try to ask more specific questions. This list is not the place
to have your parser project done for you. Summer interns are supposed
to do that!
That said, you might have an easier time if you don't construct an AST.
Instead you can build your data structure as you parse. Here's what I
mean (my example is in Java):
grammar Example
options {
language = Java;
}
@members {
private HashMap<String,Integer> MyMap;
}
file
returns [HashMap<String,Integer> rval]
@init {
MyMap = new HashMap<String,Integer>();
}
@after {
rval = MyMap;
}
: list_item* EOF
;
list_item
: str:ID '=' num:INT
{
Integer myint = Integer.parseInt($num.getText());
MyMap.put($str.getText(), myint);
}
;
ID : ('a'..'z' | 'A'..'Z')* ;
INT : ('0'..'9')+ ;
WS : (' '|'\r'|'\n'|'\t')+ {$channel = HIDDEN;} ;
In this example no AST is made. Instead a Java HashMap is built. This
is probably similar to what you want. The HashMap is returned by the
'file' rule instead of an AST. Please note that if you tell ANTLR to
build an AST you will have an error, so turn AST building off. The
above code will not produce anything if there's a parse error. This is
also probably what you want.
If you follow up to this reply, please ask a specific question!
Cheers
