Hello Jesper, BTW, there is an ongoing (nearly-slow) work on Java-fication of that GSoC code, as it was written in Groovy at the GSoC time. Part of that code is now decomposed, and translated to Java, and maybe can be reused. https://github.com/xSeagullx/antlrv4_groovy_grammar/tree/feature/migrate_to_java Basically, Statements and Expressions part has been translated.
