NAMEchanges31 − Changes in 3​.1 from 3​.0 The following changes have taken place from 3​.0 to 3​.1​. Some of them may require minor changes to your grammar files or the programs that invoke your grammar​. Please take the time to read through this list as it may save you time later​.

Constructor Return ValuesIn previous releases the return value from both the generated constructors and built in constructor functions would return a value of -1 or -2 if a problem occurred​. However, the only problem that can really occur is lack of memory, hence to avoid the remote change that some memory allocation scheme would return an address of -1 for a pointer, the return address is now NULL if there was no memory available​. The old macros for this mechanism have been removed which will force you to read this information​. You now need only check the return address for NULL, or you could not bother doing that and join with 95% of the world's C code​.

Tree Parser RewritesThe 3​.1 runtime now supports tree rewrites from tree parsers​. See the main ANTLR documentation for more details​. This beta version contains knownissues regarding the release of mmeory allocated to tree nodes when they are rewritten in some combinations of re-writing tree parsers​. These issues will be corrected before release​.

ANTLRWorks DebuggerThe ANTLRWorks debugger is now fully supported by this version of the runtime​. It supports remote debugging only (you cannot generate C, compile and debug it from the ANTLRWorks IDE​.) However both parser and tree parser debugging is supported providing you are using a version of ANTLRWorks that supports tree parser debugging​. Generate the C code with the -debug option of the ANTLR tool, as per any other target​. Note that when you invoke your debugging version of the parser, it will appear to hang but is in fact waiting on a local TCP socket connection from the ANTLRWorks debugger​. As the target environment is unknown, it is not prudent to generate notification status messages using something like printf, as the target environment may not have a console or implement printf​.

Macro ChangesPrior to the 3​.1 release, accessing the token source of a lexer required knowledge of where the token source pointer was located wihtin the lexer​. In 3​.1, the token source was burried further in the innards of the C runtime and such knowledge is considerd irreleavant and confusing​. Hence, when creating a token stream from a token source, it is now mandatory to use the new C macro TOKENSOURCE(lxr), which will expand to point at the token source interface​. This MACRO will be maintained across future versions​. You can see how to use it in the downloadable examples, avaiable from the downloads page of the ANTLR web site​. Here is the relevant code for creating a token stream, extracted from those examples: tstream = antlr3CommonTokenStreamSourceNew(ANTLR3_SIZE_HINT, TOKENSOURCE(lxr));
