Mediawiki parsing in ANTLR: processing ' tokens

I'm trying to write a grammar to parse Media wiki's wiki syntax, and after this the Creole syntax too (unfortunately an existing Creole grammar doesn't work in Antlr 3).

My issue right now is being able to capture a bold rule 开发者_如何学JAVAwhen I'm already inside an italic rule, or visa versa. For example

'' this text is bold '''now it's italic''' and just bold again''

I've got a lot of help from this question but I'm stuck. The goal is to produce HTML inside the grammar using actions, or possibly an AST - I'm not sure which is best yet.

As an exercise, I created a MediaWiki parser as well and didn't match open- and close-tags for bold and italic, but rather invoked a toggle like this:

grammar MediaWiki;

options {
  output=AST;
  backtrack=true;
  memoize=true;
}

...

// entry point of the parser
parse
  :  atom+ EOF -> ^(ROOT atom+)
  ;

atom
  :  formatToggle
  |  horizontalRule
  |  header
  |  link
  |  list
  |  preFormattedText
  |  table
  |  ...
  |  any
  ;

formatToggle
  :  SQt SQt SQt SQt SQt -> BOLD_ITALIC
  |  SQt SQt SQt         -> BOLD
  |  SQt SQt             -> ITALIC
  ;

...

SQt
  :  '\''
  ; 

And then during the translation of the MediaWiki format (to HTML?), you keep flip some boolean flags when you encounter one of BOLD_ITALIC, BOLD or ITALIC.

I haven't tested my grammar properly yet, so I'm not going to post the entire grammar here.

Good luck!
