Question

I’m trying to call an Antlr task in my Ant build.xml as follows:

<path id='classpath.build'>   <fileset dir='${dir.lib.build}' includes='**/*.jar' /> </path>  ...  <target name='generate-lexer' depends='init'>   <antlr target='${file.antlr.lexer}'>     <classpath refid='classpath.build'/>   </antlr> </target> 

But Ant can’t find the task definition. I’ve put all of the following in that dir.lib.build:

• antlr-3.1.jar
• antlr-2.7.7.jar
• antlr-runtime-3.1.jar
• stringtemplate-3.2.jar

But none of those seems to have the task definition. (I’ve also tried putting those jars in my Ant classpath; same problem.)

Answer 1

The current Antlr-task jar is available at http://www.antlr.org/share/1169924912745/antlr3-task.zip

It can be found on the antlr.org website under the ‘File Sharing’ heading.
