We've bundled ANTLR historically because we bundled the Java reverse engineering which depended on it. As we split out the Java support into a separate module, I'm not sure we should continue to bundle ANTLR. Strictly speaking, the choice of a parser generator is up to the module writers and I'm not sure we should be preferring one over another. Having said that, historically most (all?) language modules have used ANTLR, so having the jar in the main distribution saves some space by not having it duplicated in each individual language module. > i saw it under lib/ in the java-module, even antlrworks is in there. I don't see why it should be depending on AntlrWorks, but I think it's a good thing that it has its own copy of ANTLR V3. > what about putting the antlr v3 jars in a central place? Unless the files are huge, I think it would be better to have each individual module distribute their own so that they can manage version dependencies independently. > > these are the necessary jars: > > antlr-2.7.7.jar (already there) Why is this necessary?
