Hi,
the gUnitEditor seems to be a nice tool but it doesn't handle *.gunit files
with an included "@header {package my.pack.there;}" gracefully.
It is able to read such a file but when writing the "@header" line is
discarded. I unpacked the antlr-3.4-complete.jar and patched the
StringTemplate group file /org/antlr/gunit/swingui/gunit.stg to contain my
needed header line like this:
------------------------------------------------------------
group gunit;
gUnitFile(testSuite) ::= <<gunit <testSuite.grammarName>;
@header { package my.pack.there.antlr; }
<testSuite.rulesForStringTemplate:testGroup()>
>>
testGroup() ::= <<
<if(it.notEmpty)>
//------------------- <it.name>
<it.name>:
<it.testCases: testCase(); separator="\n\n">
<endif>
>>
testCase() ::= "<it.input> <it.output>"
-------------------------------------------------------------
This way I can use this tool at least as a sophisticated editor for *.gunit
files without destroying the package line over and over again.
But unfortunately the gUnitEditor is not able to run the unit tests because it
doesn't find the lexer. I assume gUnitEditor needs to evaluate the @header
line itself.
Running the tests on the command line from the same directory works.
Anybody out there keen on fixing this? I'm not doing it myself because I'm a
Java newbie and I suspect I would more break than fix.
Greets,
Stefan
