Antlr4 target C# error

I have setup my C# project to use the Antlr4 build targets and extension for compiling the g4 grammer. However, when I build I am getting the following errors. Any thoughts?

Error   1   The name 'HIDDEN' does not exist in the current context C:\gNOSIS\Oracle\Software\oracle\oracle\obj\x64\Debug\Verilog2001Lexer.cs   131 22  oracle

For the "La" / "LA" part you can add some extension methods to fix it:

namespace Antlr4.Runtime
{
    public static class AntlrCsCompatability
    {
        public static int LA(this ICharStream self, int i)
        {
            return self.La(i: i);
        }
    }
}

Same holds true for the Lexer:

namespace GeneratedCode.ANTLR4
{
    public partial class STLexer
    {
        public const int EOF = Eof;
        public const int HIDDEN = Hidden;
    }

}

This, along with a few other related issues, was fixed in the following recent series of commits:

https://github.com/sharwell/antlr4cs/compare/2ac3c964...c0aa59cb

These changes will be included in the next release. Until then you can use the following in your lexer grammar (for combined grammars use @lexer::members):

@members {
    public const int EOF = Eof;
    public const int HIDDEN = Hidden;
}

Errors 5-8 are related to semantic predicates in your grammar. In the C# target, the lookahead method is La, not LA.
