• Which grammars can be interpreted by the built-in interpreter?
• Combined grammars
• Parser grammars
• The interpreter fails with a "FailPredicateException"

The built-in interpreter can't deal with predicates. If you are building a Java grammar you can use the run/debug interpreter. See Running grammars for more information

• In which JVM ANTLR runs?

By default, ANTLR IDE builds, runs and debugs grammars in the same JVM that eclipse runs.

If you had installed ANTLR IDE- JDT Integration Plug-in and the grammar is in a Java project, ANTLR IDE builds, runs and debugs grammars in the JVM specified in the Java project
