| ANTLR version 3 supports target language generation for the lexical |
| analyzer and parsers. Objective C was supported previously but had not |
| been brought up to date for some time. This release is built on the work |
| by Kay Roepke, Ian Michell and Alan Condit. |
| |
| The project is currently working sufficiently for me to use it in compiling |
| my grammar and tree walker. I am sure that it still has some bugs but I have |
| fixed all of the bugs that I have found so far. |
| |
| The project consists of an Objective-C runtime framework that must be |
| installed in /Library/Frameworks. |
| |
| It also requires the installation of the String Template files to |
| support the target language code generation. Hopefully, at some point |
| they will be incorporated into the ANTLR release code, so that the |
| individual user doesn't have to do anything but load the framework into |
| the proper location. However, for now you need to create an ObjC |
| directory in antlr-3.2/tool/src/main/resources/org/antlr/codegen/templates |
| and then copy the ObjC ".stg" files to |
| antlr-3.2/tool/src/main/resources/org/antlr/codegen/templates/ObjC/*. |
| |
| There is also a java file ObjCTarget.java that goes in < |
| antlr-3.2/tool/src/main/java/org/antlr/codegen/ObjCTarget/Java>. |
| |
| If you are using Antlr3.3 the code from here is included with the Antlr tarball. You just need |
| to copy the ANTLR.framework to /Library/Frameworks. |
