Hi,

I'm trying to automate xtext code generation using an Ant build file. I found this article, which pointed mit into the correct direction.

Unfortunately, I get the following error (while everything else seems to work fine):

[java] 12059 [main] ERROR enerator.CompositeGeneratorFragment  - Explicit encoding was set but is not supported by the available version of the AntlrToolRunner.
[java] Please use the ANTLR parser generator in version 2.1 or better


This error does not occur, when I run the workflow manually. I found out that the problem seems to be related with the used libraries (.jar files). In my Ant file, I'm using exactly the same jar files as configured for the project. I ensured this using the Project->Export->Ant Buildfiles functionality of eclipse.

Following are the included .jar files. Any idea what I have to change to get rid of the error?

Hi Christian,

what do you mean by "in the project"?

There is one .jar in the dependencies that is called similar (org.antlr.generator_3.2.0.v201108011202.jar). It is required to run the workflow (if I exclude it, I get a classnotfound exception). IMHO version 3.2 is "better" than 2.1...

Cheers,
Till

Hi,

I feel I didn't get the point. What can I do now? Everything seems to be correct for me... the error message state that I should use a newer version of the ANTLR generator than 2.1, and that's exactly what I do...

then the arror should not occur.
so please have a look that the class "AntlrToolfacade" and make sure your version of the de.itemis.xtext.antlr.toolrunner.AntlrToolRunner class
has a method runWithEncodingAndParams.

in my case i have the bundle de.itemis.xtext.antlr.source_2.1.0.v201308291703.jar installed which contains that class.
the downloaded antlr-generator-3.2.0.jar does this too (it may be stored as "./.antlr-generator-3.2.0.jar" in the runtime project in your case
(this depends on your setup

This is pretty confusing.

I don't have any de.itemis.xtext.antlr{*}2.1.0{*}.jar on my machine. Instead, I can only find a 2.0.0 version.

But as said, the "regular" method to run the MWE2 workflow does not result in any errors. And because I'm using exactly the same .jar files within the ANT build file as available to eclipse, I don't understand why I should download a 2.1.0 to get it working. Ah, and I never downloaded any antlr-generator-3.2.0.jar file. It has always been available in my eclipse plugin directory. It does not reside in my workspace or so.

And now after I've learned that there's a 2.1.0 xtext.antlr version, I'm also confused why it seems that I don't get the latest release when I press "check for updates" in my eclipse 4.3.1. Are there any new update sites?

Shocked many questions at once Smile

Hi,

please have a look if the regular workflow downloaded the .antlr-generator-3.2.0.jar to your project (containing the workflow)

No antlr-generator-3.2.0.jar in my project (i searched the whole project on the file system, see screenshot). But as said, this .jar is on the dependencies list of my project and can be found in the eclipse plugins directory. However, this .jar is also used for the Ant build.

I rather think the problem is related to the fact that I've only got de.itemis.xtext.antlr_2.0.0.v201108011202.jar (and not 2.1.0) in my plugins directory. There is no class "AntlrToolfacade" inside. But this still leaves unanswered why I don't get any problems when running the MWE workflow directly....

Sorry I have no idea on that
Maybe you can use the debugger to find out which class is used in
eclipse

I just debugged the MWE2 workflow and found the explanation for the experienced behaviour:

In any case, the method "AntlrToolFacade.runWithEncodingAndParams" is called. Inside this method, reflection is used to call another(?) method "runWithEncodingAndParams" (this looks very awkward to me).

Anyway, even if the workflow is run from eclipse (Run As MWE2 Workflow), the following invoke() call throws an NoSuchMethodException. But while in the case of "Run As MWE2 Workflow" a following check on "Charset.defaultCharset().name().equals(explicitEncoding)" evaluates to true, it is false when the workflow is run via Ant. This causes the IllegalStateException ("Explicit encoding was set but is not supported by the available version of the AntlrToolRunner ...") to be thrown only in the case of an Ant-build.

I assume the problem would just go away when I update to a xtext-version with a 2.1.0-jar. This again leads me to the question why I don't get the latest version when I press "check for updates" in eclipse...

/edit:
thanks for the debugger hint... I found out that stuff above just before reading you last reply Smile

Cause it is on the itemis update site only cause of IP issues

Ah, ok.

I solved the problem differently then:

<jvmarg value="-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8"/>


... for java running org.eclipse.emf.mwe2.launch.runtime.Mwe2Launcher. It works!
