Hi

i hope you can give me some idea.I have some sort of type in my Model such as

LibModel:
  (types+=Type)*;            

Type:
  TypeA|TypeB|TypeAB| TypeC;

Is it possible to allow just one type for each line?

Hi,

what about simply

LibModel hidden(Stuff but not NEWLINE):
(types+=Type NEWLINE)*;

The best is to handle this in validation - simply check that there is
one or more hidden nodes with a newline (or end of file) between your
types. This will cause you the least problems and keeps the grammar clean.

You also want to add suitable rules to the formatter.

Hi Christian

When If I have WS rule and NL, they make conflict
I tried to make a changed on WS like this

LibModel hidden(myWhiteSpace ):
(types+=Type NEWLINE)*;
terminal myWhiteSpace : (' '|'\t')+
terminal NEWLINE: '\r'?'\n';

this didnt work ither, its looking for NewLIne rule is missing, and not allow me leave empty lines
