ANTLR 4 in Eclipse [message #1862227]

I have been working on a Java workspace made using Gradle, LibGDX and about five projects in the repo. Two of the projects are using ANTLR.

What I find is that as time goes on, in subsequent versions of Eclipse it seems to be harder and harder for any user to load configurations for this project.

This weekend I got a new GNU+Linux laptop where I have been trying to aim not to install software from outside the built-in package manager as much as possible, to improve my personal security, but the package management only has a newer version of Eclipse available. However, the "ANTLR 4 IDE" plugin on the "Eclipse Marketplace" that I had been using on my previous computer is not available in the marketplace for the newer Eclipse version.

It may be the case that my only two options are:
1.) Use an older version of Eclipse for this project indefinitely
2.) Attempt to learn how to maintain a fork of ANTLR 4 IDE myself that would work on a newer Eclipse version

Both of these options are theoretically possible, but seem non-ideal for my situation. This makes me wonder if I am uninformed about a better alternative. Is anyone aware of a better and more modern way to do ANTLR in Eclipse?

Nevermind! Solved my own issue. Apparently ANTLR 4 IDE plugin is available on the Eclipse version in my package management, and I simply overlooked it or searched for the wrong search term previously!
