I am trying to match multi-word keywords at the lexer level, I found the pattern below in previous answers but I can't figure out how to make the type assigned to $type visible to parser rules... any suggestion appreciated!
I would rather not modify containOperator to get at the token type, this would make the grammar much less readable. containOperator : CONTAINS_TEXT | CONTAINS_MATCH CONTAINS_TEXT : 'contains' WS+ ( 'match' { $type=CONTAINS_MATCH } | 'text' ) ; // CONTAINS_MATCH:; // causes "token definitions can never be matched" error -- View this message in context: http://antlr.1301665.n2.nabble.com/Matching-compound-keywords-in-the-lexer-tp7032358p7032358.html Sent from the ANTLR mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
