Validation of non-null enum rule [message #1706866]

Hi,
I have a Grammar which includes an enum zero-based value, which i want to validate for non-null.

Lets say my grammar has rules like:

Parent:
'parent' name=ID '{'
'period-age' period=Period
'age' age=INT
'}'

enum Period:
FIRST='1Part' | SECOND='2Part' | LAST='3Part';

I Want to validate if i don't receive the enum-value (Period), which means it is null.
How can i do it?

Note: This is important because I also have rules which the enum-based value is optional (and will then pass the parser but i will want to check them in the validation step)

by default this will never happen, since the enum value will always be set (to the first value)
maybe you can play around with unsettable (eIsSet)
