All I'm saying is that the docs say it can be used in a parser rule. And that I know what its value should be. There's no need to assume I've done something stupid, which certainly seems to be the case when you suggest that using $text there isn't valid, or is problematic in some way, without elaborating, especially when the docs say it can be used. -- Sam Barnett-Cormack List: http://www.antlr.org/mailman/listinfo/antlr-interest Unsubscribe: http://www.antlr.org/mailman/options/antlr-interest/your-email-address --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "il-antlr-interest" group.
