Upgrading to 4.9.3

[renzosilv]

I'm fairly new to antlr and I inherited a project at work which uses it - my question is two fold. Currently in nuget I only see Antlr4.Runtime.Standard but I have currently installed Antlr4, Antlr4.Runtime and Antlr4.Codegenerator (4.6.6)
Do I now only need the standard package? Is there a place where I can learn how to make the upgrade?

The reason I want to upgrade is because currently I'm core dumping with files larger than 1 gig (object is 4 gigs in memory) and running in an environment with plenty more. I gather from reading some of the issues that it might help since it uses a newer version of .net?

Thanks in advance.

It seems you are using the visiontunnellabs fork, not the official antlr release.

Although it is not "official", you can replace Antl4/Antlr4.Runtime with my Antlr4BuildTasks plus the "official" Antlr4.Runtime.Standard Nuget libraries. Antlr4BuildTasks is a replacement for antlr4--I rewrote part of that fork. It is a wrapper for the "official" Java Antlr4 4.9.3 tool jar, and comes with a stand-alone JRE, and a copy of the Antlr4.9.3 complete jar, all within the Nuget package. The MSBuild/Dotnet rules to build the parser from the grammar are almost the same as the Antlr4 Nuget package. You don't need Java; You don't need to download Antlr4 complete jar. The replacement for Antlr4.Runtime is the Antlr4.Runtime.Standard package. If you use Antlr4BuildTasks and Antlr4.Runtime.Standard, do not reference Antlr4 nor Antlr4.Runtime. The Tunnelvision fork is very old. There is no replacement for Antlr4.CodeGenerator, so just remove that from your .csproj file. The instructions for Antlr4BuildTasks is here.
