> STELLAR Shell: Handle NoViableAltException with better information

>
>                 Key: METRON-1089
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-1089
>             Project: Metron
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>            Reporter: Otto Fowler
>            Priority: Major
>
> Antlr's NoViableAltException is thrown when Antlr cannot figure out what to 
> do when building the expression tree.  This happens when the grammar is 
> improperly posed.
> For example:
> > TO_UPPER(IN)
> Where IN is a reserved phrase, but is not posed correctly.
> This is basically an invalid syntax exception.  But buried in the cause of a 
> ParseException, it really is not helpful.
> The shell should find the ParseException cause, and if it is this exception, 
> output a better message
