I have been working my way through converting Java.stg to Sv.stg for SystemVerilog and have a lot done. I am able to compile simple things like the XxxParserBaseListener.sv

But, I am real tired of waiting for

mvn -DskipTests install

to recompile the target languages after stg changes.

Please provide faster way to compile, and test, if possible, maybe without rebuilding antlr4-4.11.2-SNAPSHOT-complete.jar

I am using IntelliJ to run

antlr4-4.11.2-SNAPSHOT-complete.jar -Dlanguage=Sv TestLexer.g4 TestParser.g4 -o generated

Please help.

Hi,

the mvn build is only necessary when building the project for the first time.

Once that is done, you should create a test suite in the runtime-tests project, and run them from IntelliJ directly.
I suggest you look for a training for developing and running tests in IntelliJ, this is not an antlr topic.

And once it has built, you can just tweak the template files all you want and hit the run button on a unit test or other tool execution. It will then run the latest build with your new template
