Serialization: how to choose which optionnal rule is used [message #1781701]

Hello,

I have a grammar like this :

Polygon:
	'POLY:'(locations+=Location)*':'
;
SQUARE:
	'SQR:'color=INT';'lineStyle=INT';'thickness=INT(locations+=Location)*':'
;
Location: 
	(';'|':')x=INT';'y=INT
;

x is preceding by ';' or by ':' it depends on the rule.

When parsing a file with this grammar, it's ok, I have no error, but when I tried to serialize the file, it replaces ':' by ';'

For example, for this file as input :
POLY:100;200;150;250

The output will be:
POLY;100;200;150;250

How can I resolve this problem ?

Thank you in advance.

PS: I can't change the format of the input file, it's given by an other application.
