How to change parent class in ANTLR-3?

Question

By default, the parser generated using ANTLR-3 continues from org.antlr.runtime.Parser. How can I extend my own class instead?

Answer 1

You can do this using the superClass parameter in your grammar:

 grammar G; options { superClass = YourCustomClass; } parse : ... ; 

which will generate:

 public class GParser extends YourCustomClass { // ... }
