Victor, it was the first way i tried out. I've almost implemented lexer and parser for Vala using antlr rules. And there is a basic plugin for netbeans using that lexer.
But there still to much things to fix and do and i'm very limited in my time. libvala has already implemented lexer and parser and evolve with the vala itself. And in the future all new constructions of language will be easier to support.
