Overview

NuGram IDE Profesional Edition provides Ant tasks to automate grammar-related tasks:

• Coverage task — this task runs grammar coverage tests on collections of grammars.
• Conversion task — this task converts ABNF grammars to various formats
• Instantiation task — this task instantiates a dynamic grammar and outputs the resulting ABNF grammar to a file.

Installation

NuGram IDE Professional Edition comes with a compressed archive named nugram-anttasks.zip. This archive contains, in its lib folder, all the Java jar files required to run the ant tasks:

• com.nuecho.api.grammar_1.0.1.jar
• com.nuecho.framework.grammar_1.2.4.jar
• com.nuecho.framework.grammartasks_1.2.4.jar
• com.nuecho.framework.util_1.2.4.jar
• kawa-1.7.91-4600.jar
• rhino-1.6R1.jar
• xerces-2.9.1.jar

These jar files must be put in the classpath of the Ant process. (The actual version number of the files starting with com.nuecho may differ from the ones shown here.) Consult the Ant manual for more information.

The archive also contains an antlib file name nugram-antlib.xml that holds the task definitions. This file must be included in an Ant build file using the typedef element:

<project name="My Project" >

    <typedef file="path_to/nugram-antlib.xml" />

    ...

</project>
