[antlr-interest] Antlr3 in Eclipse and Maven?

Wed Jun 20 04:29:29 PDT 2012

Yes – I don’t know where that Editor comes from but I doubt that it is up
to date. If you do run as->maven install, does the project compile? I
suspect that the editor is just incorrect and you need to treat it like an
normal text file.

I'm easy; I just want whatever version WORKS. And that's the one specified
in the wiki. Open with defaults to Antlr editor. Is that what you mean?

You are probably using the wrong Maven plugin. Find the docs in the wiki
and it will tell you the correct name,

Subject: [antlr-interest] Antlr3 in Eclipse and Maven?

I've an antlr3 grammar that compiles fine in AntlrWorks. I'm trying to
load it into Eclipse with Maven to start work on the non-grammar bits.

Problem is it won't compile in either. Error flags are on the first line,
grammar ...;, and nothing I've tried will remove them. Somehow antlr2 is
getting involved in the compile step.

The dependency list shows antlr-runtime-3.2.jar and stringtemplate-3.2.jar
now. Previously there was an antlr2 jar that I've explicitly excluded.
Didn't make a difference.

My best guess is that the antlr3 maven plugin is launching antlr2, not
antlr3, but I have no visibility into what that plugin is doing.

<groupId>org.antlr</groupId>
<artifactId>antlr3-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.1.3-1</version

There's also likely confusion over which eclipse plugin I should be using.
After some searching I removed everything but the one from certiv, but no
joy.

Could someone point me to a known-to-work reference? Thanks!
