Hi all,

I declared 16 and 32 to be used together with a rule named code.
when i have another rule text, it is declared to be used with integer.
but it return errors when i typed 16 or 32 after rule text. Any idea how to fix it? attached is the snip shot of error result.

Here is my rules.

syntax used to reproduce:

.code 32 //ok
.align 0 //ok
.align 32 //error
.align 16 //error
.align 77 //ok
************************************************************
Model:
elements+=ARMInstr*
;

ARMInstr:
Ccode
;

Ccode:
ARM_MACHINE_DIRECTIVES_align (int=INT | hex=HEX)?
| ARM_Machine_Directives_code (arm?='16' | thumb?='32')
;

ARM_MACHINE_DIRECTIVES_align:
dot?=('.')code?='align'
;

ARM_Machine_Directives_code:
dot?=('.') code?= 'code'
;

terminal HEX:
('='|'#')?('0x' | '&')(('0'..'9')|('a'..'f') | ('A'..'F'))*
;

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

Thank you =)

hi the lexer is context free. thus 16 and 32 will always be lexed as keywords and not as int

you have to introduce a special parser rule = datatype rule like

MyINT : INT | '16' | '32';

and use that one insteadof INT

you may additionally change the returntype of MyINT to be ecore::EInt + use a value converter to do the conversion
if needed

ARM_MACHINE_DIRECTIVES_align (int=MyINT | hex=HEX)?
