[GitHub] [netbeans] matthiasblaesing commented on pull request #4472: Make ANTLRv4 generated Lexer integration into NetBeans easy.

   In general I refrain from creating a library if there is no clear advantage. The problem with libraries and NetBeans "we never break API" attitude is, that you set thinks in stone, that you might regret. If the code is copied you pay by maybe doing work twice, but on the other hand you gain bigger freedoms. Not sure where I'd make the tradeoff, but two use sites seems not enough for the introduced dependency.

   Any reason to do so? The dependencies of antlr are more or less trivial and it does not tie into the JVM, so I don't expect problems in the future.
