Hi

 

I have the following in a tree grammar that works as I expect:

 

columnNameList returns [List names]    

                :               ^(COLUMN_NAMES ids+=ID+) 

                { 

                                $names = new ArrayList();

                                for( Object tree : $ids ) {

                                                $names.add( 
((CommonTree)tree).getText().toUpperCase() );

                                }

                }

                ;

 

What I am wondering is if there is a built in way in ANTLR to loop over the 
list of ID tokens, to perform some common function, and then return that list.  
I guess I am wondering if there is some built in 'collect' function similar to 
the collect method that is available on collections in languages like Groovy or 
Smalltalk.

 

I would prefer something like the following instead:

 

                $names = $ids.collect{ it.text.toUpperCase() }

 

How is this usually handled?
