----------------------------------------------
I apologize for not actually contributing to the subject at hand, but I can't
help myself: I have never seen a library that causes more problems as a
dependency than antlr.
> Allow C* to compile under java 8

> antlr 3.2 has a problem with java 8, as described here:
> http://bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=8015656
> updating to antlr 3.5.2 solves this, however they have split up the jars
> differently, which adds some changes, but also the generation of
> CqlParser.java causes a method to be too large, so i needed to split that
> method to reduce the size of it.
> (patch against trunk)
