Subject: Help with COBOL grammar for sablecc 

Hello All,

I came cross a problem when I use SableCC to generate COBOL parser.
My COBOL grammar is quite big and already in SableCC format.

The problem is that every time I run "java SableCC cobol.grammar",
it terminated with message 'OutOfMemoryError' at the step" generating
parser".

I tried to use -mx and -ms option of java, but it doesn't work.
And my machine has 256M memory and virtual page size is set to
2048M. Sometimes the running time is more than 8 hours.

I don't know what is the problem.  Help are urgently wanted! Please...

By the way,  does anyone have COBOL grammar for SableCC? As I am not
sure
about the correctness of my cobol grammar.

Many thanks,
