Eric Milles updated GROOVY-8547:
--------------------------------
Description:
It seems to me the selection of the Antlr2 or Antlr4 parser could be
implemented within a default implementation of {{ParserPluginFactory}} instead
of introducing {{ParserVersion}} with separate get/set on
{{CompilerConfiguration}}. I don't see the need for static factory methods
{{antlr2()}} and {{antlr4()}} on {{ParserPluginFactory}}, their use from
{{CompilerConfiguration}} and the strange class loading in
{{ParserPluginFactory}}.
The factory pattern appears to me to be side-stepped in favor of a version
constant. Is there still meaning in offering a config option of setting a
{{ParserPluginFactory}}? Has this been used ever in the past?
Couldn't this suffice for a default in {{CompilerConfiguration}}? Then
{{ParserVersion}} could be dropped.
{code:java}
public ParserPluginFactory getPluginFactory() {
if (pluginFactory == null) {
pluginFactory = new ParserPluginFactory() {
@Override
public ParserPlugin createParserPlugin() {
return Boolean.getBoolean(GROOVY_ANTLR4_OPT) ? new
Antlr4PluginFactory() : new AntlrParserPluginFactory();
}
}
}
return pluginFactory;
}
{code}
