the "T.g:5:64" portion of the error message is the location of the error
and means line 5 of file T.g in the 64th character position of that
line.

assuming that your T.g does not have blank lines between the rules, line
5 char 64 would be the very last character of the file (e.g. the last e
in whitespace).

does your file have a new-line as the very last character?

(i am speculating that you do not have a final new-line and that ANTLR
needs a new-line in order to mark the end of the "//" comment on your
last line).

i do not use ANTLRWorks, so can not speak to that issue, sorry.

hope this helps....

(ps and, oh, by the way, I was unable to reproduce this error --- both
with and without final new-line --- using Ubuntu 11.04, Sun Java 6 and
the antlr-3.4-complete.jar file....)
