My initial guess is the exceptions are being thrown in the lexer. By default, the implementation of NextToken in the lexer catches any RecognitionException and handles it by skipping the invalid token. Custom handling of the exception depends on exactly what you're trying to accomplish. One way to start is adding the following rule to the end of your lexer, which passes the invalid tokens to the lexer for handling.
INVALID_CHAR : . ; Sam -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Dilip Ranganathan Sent: Wednesday, May 18, 2011 3:00 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [antlr-interest] ANTLR C# port Hi I have been banging my head with Sam Harwell's Antlr C# port since morning. SO far I have managed to integrate grammar compilation with Visual Studio 2010 following the instructions on this page: http://www.antlr.org/wiki/display/ANTLR3/Antlr3CSharpReleases However I am stuck with something for the moment. A simple test driver program I wrote to test the generated lexer/parser doesn't report any kind of error when I pass invalid input. That is, the generated parser code is eating the exception and the output window only shows that a few first chance exceptions were generated. Now I added these exceptions to Debug->Exceptions list in VS 2010 (under CLR) and that way I was able to make the debugger break into the offending code but I can't believe this is the way to do it? Shouldn't I be seeing something on the console or at least as an exception I must be able to catch and display exactly what was wrong with my input?
