problem with grammar in ANTLR Lab

[rwblues]

hallo, the grammar is:

grammar TextBlock;
textBlock: sentence+ EOF;
sentence: word+ FullStop;
word: LETTER+;
LETTER: [a-zA-Z];
FullStop: '.';

This is the input:
This is a text.
It consists of several lines.
Each line consists of one or more Words and is terminated with a fullstop.

And here is the response:
1:14 token recognition error at: '.'
2:28 token recognition error at: '.'
3:73 token recognition error at: '.'
1:0 mismatched input 'This' expecting 'and'
3:29 extraneous input 'more' expecting {, 'and'}
3:44 extraneous input 'is' expecting {'and', '.'}

The following modification did not help: sentence: word+ FullStop {getText().length() > 1};

Please give advice.
Thanks

Make sure you click on the lexer source code tab and erase everything in that textbox. You have a 'combined grammar' so you only put the combined grammar in 'Parser' textbox. The lab.antlr.org website uses an interpreter of the grammar, so actions {getText().length() > 1} don't work. By the way that action won't work for a generated parser because the code won't compile...missing semicolon.

Reproduced. It is caused exactly because you did not clear out the lexer grammar from the lexer textedit box in lab.antlr.org. The grammar still has issues, though. Suggest this:

grammar TextBlock;
textBlock: sentence+ EOF;
sentence: word+ FullStop;
word: LETTER+;
LETTER: [a-zA-Z];
FullStop: '.';
WS: [ \n\r\t]+ -> channel(HIDDEN);

THANK YOU!
Now I have a basis on which I can continue. The graphical output does not show the individuel words but every single letter is reproduced. At least no errors are shown.
Thanks again
