ANTLR 2.6.1

June 20, 1999
Terence Parr

  1. Most importantly, the C++ code generator has been brought up to date as well as the examples.  Thanks to Peter Wells!
  2. Made token implement Cloneable
  3. In header comment PC files came out with \u for \user\file.g which is a bad unicode char.  Made it strip path off.
  4. Bug fixed: tokens { T="t"; U; } tried to redefined "t".
  5. Thanks to Rob Mayoff <mayoff@dqd.com> we can now init return values.
  6. Made a bunch of fixes to java grammar; no known bugs now.
  7. Removed public static final from output token type interface; redundant.
  8. Fixed a few bugs in db or updated it anyway.  See bug list at website.

To install:

  1. copy the patch zip file antlr-2.6.0-to-1.zip over the antlr-2.6.0 directory, it will overwrite various java and .class files.
  2. change the name of the directory to antlr-2.6.1 from antlr-2.6.0.
  3. change your CLASSPATH to point to the renamed antlr-2.6.1 directory.
  4. if you use the antlr.jar file, run the mkjar script from antlr-2.6.0 to recreate the antlr.jar file with the updated .class files.
