Jim, Ian, Thanks for pointing me to missing EOF.
However, it did not .. kind of.. solve my problem. Resulting tree will now (after adding EOF and with same input) be int test ; <missing EOF> Whereas, I would _like to have_ a tree something like below: int test; <error> int variable; string here; How to refactor my grammar to make a tree like above?
