The ActionScript code generation target

Note: The ActionScript target was last synced with the 3.2 version of ANTLR, and is no longer being actively maintained.

The ActionScript target closely follows the Java target. The API and runtime behavior are consistent to the extent possible.

Please send bug reports, feedback, patches to George Scott (preferable) or the to the antlr-interest mailing list.

Requirements

The runtime generates ActionScript 3 code designed to work with Flex version 2 or higher from Adobe. The runtime binary libraries are all compiled with the latest Flex 3.2 SDK.

To use generated code, you'll need to include ActionScript runtime package antlr3.swc in your library path. There are no other dependencies beyond the standard Flex libraries. Note, that the library contains some Adobe AIR class references, to use the library in a pure Flex project use the -library-path compiler option rather than the -include-library option when compiling from the command line.

...

• -debug option: mostly useful for integration into ANTLRWorks.
• output=template: StringTemplate has not been ported to ActionScript, so template-based recognizers are not supported.
