I'm using ANTLR (antlr.org) to generate a parser in Java. The generated
..java file is almost 100K lines long. When I try to debug the file, any
lines past 65535 are not working. The debugger incorrectly reports the line
as 65536 lines earlier. For example, if I step into a method that appears on
line 80460, the debugger stops on line 14924. All debugging functions work
correctly, except the debugger is reporting and highlighting the wrong line,
which makes debugging near impossible.
Obviously the debugger is using a 16-bit integer to represent the line
numbers. Does anyone know how to fix it?

I thought javac did generate an error. We chanced upon this a long time
ago I think with JSP files. I think we were able to get Javasoft to
address this issue.
