Package: antlr4 Version: 4.5.3-1 Severity: important Tags: newcomer Dear Maintainer,
I've just installed antlr4 on Debian Strech in order to learn this tool. I carefully read the getting started instructions [1], which list the tool grun for first testing purposes. However, this tool does not work as expected. It just says "Can't load Hello as lexer or parser". This is a known issue (see [2]) and can be fixed by adding . (dot) to the classpath. Here is what grun (/usr/share/antlr4/grun) looks like on Debian: CLASSPATH=/usr/share/java/antlr4.jar:/usr/share/java/antlr4-runtime.jar exec java -cp $CLASSPATH org.antlr.v4.gui.TestRig "$@" Here is what grun looks like on MacOS (installed with brew): java -classpath /usr/local/Cellar/antlr/4.6/antlr-4.6-complete.jar:. org.antlr.v4.gui.TestRig "$@" Please update the grun script to include "." in the classpath. Thanks and BR Christoph [1] https://github.com/antlr/antlr4/blob/master/doc/getting-started.md [2] https://github.com/antlr/antlr4/blob/master/doc/faq/installation.md -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: armhf Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages antlr4 depends on: ii libantlr3-runtime-java 3.5.2-6 ii libantlr4-runtime-java 4.5.3-1 ii libstringtemplate4-java 4.0.8-2 ii libtreelayout-java 1.0.3-1 ii openjdk-8-jre-headless [java6-runtime-headless] 8u121-b13-4 antlr4 recommends no packages. antlr4 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
