antlr 4无法作为词法分析器或解析器加载

Question

I'm using antlr 4 to write my grammar. I would like to see the gui three generated by my grammar. When I try to run the example on the antlr site ( http://www.antlr.org/wiki/display/ANTLR4/Getting+Started+with+ANTLR+v4 ) it works, but if I try with my grammar it doesn't work. In particular I've tried also to run the grammar on NetBeans and AntlrWorks 2 with the command "Run in TestRig.." , but the result is the same error message ""Can't load Troubles as lexer or parser"".

This is my grammar:

    script 
    : include*
      systemDef
      labelsDef
      issueDef*
      observationDef*
      actionDef*
      procedure*
    ;

include
    : USE qualifiedName EOS;

systemDef
    : SYSTEM definition;

labelsDef
    : LABELS COLON '{' label* '}' EOS ;

label
    : IDENTIFIER COLON literal EOS
    ;

issueDef
    : ISSUES definition;

observationDef
    : OBSERVATIONS definition;

actionDef
    : ACTIONS definition;

definition
    : IDENTIFIER? parameters? ( COLON block )?  EOS
    ;

reference
    : IDENTIFIER? parameters? (COLON)? (atClause ( COMMA atClause )*)? EOS
    ;

parameters
    : '[' param (COMMA param)* ']'
    ;

param
    : literal
    | IDENTIFIER
    ;

literal
    : STRINGLITERAL
    | INTEGET_LITERAL
    | PERCENTAGELITERAL
    | FLOATLITERAL
    | TRUE
    | FALSE
    ;

block
    : '{' ( (marker)? (definition | reference) )+ '}'
    ;

marker
    : PLUS
    | MINUS
    | MULTIPLY
    | SHARP
    | QUESTION_MARK
    ;

atClause
    : '@' qualifiedName parameters?
    ;

qualifiedName
    : (DOT)? IDENTIFIER  (DOT IDENTIFIER)* 
    ;

    : PROCEDURE IDENTIFIER params? COLON body 
    ;

params
    : '[' IDENTIFIER (COMMA IDENTIFIER)* ']'
    ;

    : statement
    | '{' statement* '}'
    ;

statement
    : assignment 
    | expression // .str???
    | callExpression 
    | ifStatement
    | whileStatement
    | repeatStatement
    | forStatement
    ;

assignment
    : qualifiedName ASSIGN expression (EOS)?
    ;

expression
    : conditionalOrExpression (EOS)?;

conditionalOrExpression 
    : conditionalAndExpression ( OR conditionalAndExpression )*
    ;

conditionalAndExpression 
    : equalityExpression ( AND equalityExpression )*
    ;

equalityExpression 
    :  stringExpression (equalityOp stringExpression)?
    ;

equalityOp
    : EQUAL
    | NE
    ;

stringExpression
    : relationalExpression ('§' stringExpression)?
    ;

relationalExpression 
    : additiveExpression (relationalOp additiveExpression)*
    ;

relationalOp 
    : '<='
    | '>='
    | '<'
    | '>'
    ;

additiveExpression 
    : multiplicativeExpression (( PLUS | MINUS ) multiplicativeExpression )*
    ;

multiplicativeExpression 
    : unaryExpression (( MULTIPLY | DIVIDE ) unaryExpression )*
    ;

unaryExpression 
    : ( PLUS | MINUS | NOT )? basicExpression
    ;

basicExpression
    : rangeExpression 
    | callExpression
    | qualifiedName // .str > 
    | percentageExpression
    | '(' expression ')'
    | literal
    ;

percentageExpression
    : PERCENTAGELITERAL 'of' additiveExpression
    ;

rangeExpression
    : qualifiedName '(' ThreeDigits '..' ThreeDigits ')' (EOS)?
    ;

callExpression
    : qualifiedName arguments (EOS)?
    ;

arguments
    : '(' (expression (COMMA expression)*)? ')'
    ;

ifStatement // (ELSE body)?
    : IF '(' expression ')' body 
      (ELSE ifStatement | body )?
    ;

whileStatement
    : WHILE '(' expression ')' body
    ;

repeatStatement 
    : REPEAT body UNTIL '(' expression ')' EOS
    ;

forStatement 
    : FOR .qualifiedName ASSIGN value TO value STEP value body 
    ;

value
    : FLOATLITERAL
    ;

and this is my file build.xml:

 <target name="-pre-compile" depends="antlr">
    </target>

    <target name="init-antlr">
        <!-- Full path to Antlr jar -->
        <property name="antlr-4.0-complete.jar" location="C:/Users/Mary/Documents/TesiMagistrale/lib/antlr-4.0-complete.jar"/>

Answer 1

I'm rewriting my answer so that it is more accurate.

The most likely reason you can't successfully run TestRig in NetBeans/antlrworks2 is because you set your grammar to be in a package other than the default package. If you have something like this in your grammar,

@header {
    package org.whatever.troubles;
}

try commenting it out and running "Run in TestRig...". It should work this way.

Unfortunately, the "Run in TestRig..." feature does not allow you to specify a package. You'll have to either keep your grammar in the default package, or use "grun" at the command prompt.

I recommend running grun manually until this is fixed. A nice way to handle it is to create a batch file (run.bat) in your source folder (where your .g4 is). It will show up in NetBeans in the Projects pane where you can right-click on it and select "run".

And, still, your CLASSPATH must be accurate...

Example run.bat contents:

rem grun org.whatever.troubles.Troubles script -tokens -tree -gui test.txt

java -cp .;C:\workdir\proj\dist\troubles.jar;C:\antlr-4.0-complete.jar;"C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\lib" org.whatever.troubles.Troubles script -tokens -tree -gui test.txt

Answer 2

It might be a bit late but maybe I can help others. I patched a version of TestRig to support packages which you can find here:
