My netbeans antlr plugin finally can format antlr source code 2020/06/26

Used near 6 hours to fix my netbeans-antlr plugin. I have to remember these: Netbeans build in antlr library have to in-sync with the antlr i am using in my pluging. If they in different version, unexpected result will come out. In windows, if antlr grammar has some mistakes (I meant not problems, your grammar […] 2020/05/09

Antlr error listen can’t hit with non-exist token, so my netbeans antlr plugin can’t highlight the non-exist token. The error listener is generated by official antlr4 grammar https://github.com/antlr/grammars-v4/tree/master/antlr4 2018/04/14

If you want to modify something to Netbeans IDE, just git clone the source, change its code, type “ant” and “ant try me”, very simple 2018/03/24

Netbeans talk in Codeaholics seminar. A lots of people, i have demo to people create a simple plugin to extends Netbeans is just so easy. 2018/03/17

I have met the problem “Fix the lexer to not return null token in this state.” (see below) and used one week to fix it by hacking netbeans source code. I found out Netbeans will not pass the whole file to lexer to parse. So if your antlr grammar used “skip” syntax, it has a […] 2018/03/13

When developing highlight for new language, the antlr grammar has to return all tokens, you can’t skip token, otherwise your netbeans will throw this exception: 2018/03/10

First draft of netbeans quick outline plugin, click ctrl-p / command-p in mac, then click on any row to jump to there. I think using table instead of tree is much better than eclipse. Also, eclipse show a lot of different icons (local var, global var, final var, etc…). It is useless and confusing our […] 2018/02/26

Eclipse quick outline is just so convenient, after i press command-O shortcut, i can type in keyword to filter the function/variable i want, then just click enter to jump to it. In netbeans, when i press cmomand-7, it opens navigator window which is similar to eclipse one, but it doesn’t support filtering and sometime can […] 2018/02/26

I embed the Jgraphx library to netbeans antlr to provide interactive with the parser-tree. Now, the development methodology is: Create a g4 file Set the compile target, netbeans antlr plugin will real time generate a parser from your g4 file and try to parse the target file One the compile is success, that means your […] 2017/09/26

Netbeans anltr alpha version is done, now you can keep changing your g4, it real time generate a parser to parser your specified file, generate the parser tree graph at the bottom. What i will do is: you click on any text on your target file, if highlight the node in the graph, so you […] 2017/09/24

Netbeans antlr can real time compile your g4 and test it using the selected target file. If something goes wrong, it display the error messages at bottom window. 2017/09/17

My netbeans antlr plugin will do this: select the file you want to compile (see the combo box above), when you editing the .g4 file, it keep using the latest g4 to compile to file you have selected, and see the result in the bottom window. Is it a good design? 2017/09/17
