Download and unzip:

change the path to lexer module and type

ant
ant

the DiffScanner*java files are generated again
even there is no change in the input files. This
confuses the rest of the ant script (compilation
runs again) and should be fixed.


Btw. why you do not write your own ant task
instead of invoking main methods in your module jar?

I've added timestamp checking into the build script so now both Antlr
and JavaCC should only be invoked if grammar file changes.
