What is minimal sample Gradle project for ANTLR4 (with antlr plugin)?

Question

I have created new Gradle project, added

apply plugin: \'antlr\'

and

dependencies {
    antlr \"org.antlr:antlr4:4.5.3\"
         


        

Answer 1

Gradle STS plugin doesn't generate source files for antlr4. It generates the misleading output as:

[sts] -----------------------------------------------------
[sts] Starting Gradle build for the following tasks: 
[sts]      generateGrammarSource
[sts] -----------------------------------------------------
:generateGrammarSource UP-TO-DATE

Uninstalled this old plugin and used from command line..It works !
