Please document the Maven coordinates
I searched for "stringtemplate" which gave me org.antlr:stringtemplate, which ends at the deprecated 4.0.2 version (which promptly triggered the "does not recognize the delimiters clause in files' bug and sent me on an extended bug hunt). The mention should go on http://www.antlr.org/wiki/display/ST4/Using+StringTemplate+with+Java#UsingStringTemplatewithJava-install .
Thanks!
You are looking for org.antlr:ST4
Hello, why did you change the name of the artifact ?
Artifacts on Maven Central change their naming scheme quite often actually. It's particularly common when artifact maintainership changes, Maven Central once changed naming policy, and sometimes project requirements change. I don't know what happened in antlr's case though.
Thanks for the pointer to ST4! I wasn't aware because org.antlr:ST4 isn't mentioned anywhere on the project page; can you add a reference?
This information should be on the main page.
@atamanroman It is in the README.md file. Are you looking for it somewhere else as well?
@sharwell Yes! Conventionally most maven projects have their artifact information at the project or download page (http://www.stringtemplate.org/download.html), especially if it is not obvious (ST4). I don't wan't to have to look at the repository (be it README.md or pom.xml) just to find the correct dependency.
I'll add to http://www.stringtemplate.org/download.html
I think the coordinates should go anywhere "installation" is mentioned - most Java people "install" via a Maven repository. By that definition, I found https://theantlrguy.atlassian.net/wiki/display/ST4/Using+StringTemplate+with+Java#UsingStringTemplatewithJava-install to be missing Maven coordinates, too.
