Hi,

I have this grammar which has definition of types and instance of them
in the same grammar.


This would be the type definition or Macro in this case:

*********

OBJECT-IDENTITY MACRO ::=
BEGIN
TYPE NOTATION ::=
"STATUS" Status
"DESCRIPTION" Text

VALUE NOTATION ::=
value(VALUE OBJECT IDENTIFIER)

Status ::=
"current"
| "deprecated"
| "obsolete"

ReferPart ::=
"REFERENCE" Text
| empty

-- a character string as defined in section 3.1.1
Text ::= value(IA5String)
END

*********

....and further down an instanceof of it. How do I deal with this?
I can reference the [MACRO] of course, but how does the parser know the
possible attributes and values for the Macro type? Do I need parser
rules in code?


******************

zeroDotZero OBJECT-IDENTITY
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"A value used for null identifiers."
::= { 0 0 }

**********************

Thanks ! Christophe

Christophe,

You seem to have hit the wrong newsgroup again...
