I encountered below rule and don't know how to interpret it.


expression_list


: i+=expression (',' i+=expression)* -> ^(EXPRESSION_LIST $i+)


;



Specifically, not sure how to interpret i+ here.


Can someone shed some light? Thanks in advance.

Hi,
 
"+=" is a convenient labeling method to build a list, here a list of expressions. Without "+=" you would use somthing like i.add(expression) to generate the list. "$i+" seems to indicate a list but a plain type.
 
Hope i could help.
 
Regards
Franz
