Hi everybody, As I've been cruising through an ANTLR project (in C++, no less--thanks Peter and Ric!), it occurs to me that the anonymous {...} section of an ANTLR class definition, used to put arbitrary members into said class, really needs to be flexible enough to handle languages where the prototype and implementation of a method or function might be found in two separate files. The current code generator works fine, of course, but I am uncomfortable with the fact that any C++ methods I put in there are automatically going to be marked for inlining. I'd love to hear what anyone else thinks about this. Thanks, JSRS More>>

For the sake of completeness a bit of copy paste
from the mailinglist.

Here's a template for C++ input files.
You can reach the requested effect with the [pre|post]_include_[ch]pp header sections.

In short:


{ // this gets inserted in the generated cpp file
 void MyParser::some_custom_method()
 {
 ...
 }

 }

 class MyParser extends Parser
 options { ..   }
 tokens { .. }
 { // stuff for the class definition
    void some_custom_method();
 }
