Remove (mandatory) dependency on ANTLR from POM
-----------------------------------------------
Key: VELOCITY-636
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-636
Project: Velocity
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Build, Engine
Affects Versions: 1.6-beta1
Reporter: Benjamin Bentmann
A dependency on ANTLR 2.7.7 (BTW, the build.properties mentions version 2.7.5
in contrast) has been introduced in
[r685386|http://svn.eu.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=685386]. The commit
message ("add findbugs support to maven build") as well as the actual
compilation indicates that this dependency is not an actual compile-time
dependency of the engine. It's not clear to me why it was added in the first
place, running "mvn site" succeeds without this dependency and the resulting
FindBugs reports looks OK (ignoring the various issues it lists). For the sake
of a proper class path in client applications of Velocity, this dependency
should either be completely removed or at least marked optional (c.f.
http://velocity.apache.org/engine/devel/jar-dependencies.html).
