plugin does not generate classes for package: "com.softwareag.rules.functions.parser"

[sveri]

Hi,

I have a pretty sizeable jj definition, that contains this part:

PARSER_BEGIN(JCCFunctionsParser)
package com.softwareag.rules.functions.parser;

public class JCCFunctionsParser
{}

PARSER_END(JCCFunctionsParser)

Now, when I run the gradle plugin with gradlew compileJavacc the expected java classes are not generated. After some trying out, all I could figure out, that the package name is the problem. Basically every package combination I tried works, like:

• package com.softwareag.rules.function.parser;
• package com.softwareag.rules.functions.parserr;
• package com.parser;
• package com.softwareag.rules.parser;

But the original one: package com.softwareag.rules.functions.parser; does not work. I don't see any errors during the gradle build and no suspicious output.

Any idea what might be wrong here? While changing the package name is an option, I would like to know why this fails with this specific package name.

Can you please share a minimal example that would show this error?

Hi, I made it as small as this:

PARSER_BEGIN(JCCFunctionsParser)
package com.softwareag.rules.functions.parser;

public class JCCFunctionsParser
{}

PARSER_END(JCCFunctionsParser)

TOKEN:
{
   < DIGIT: ["0"-"9"] >
}

Behaviour is the same as described in my first comment.

thanks, I meant a minimal project (maybe a github repo) so that one can see in which subfolder is your parser located, what version of the plugin is used and how is it configured etc.
