consider not adding antlr4 generated files to `managedSourceDirectories` about sbt-antlr4 HOT 5 OPEN

I have found that

javaSource in Antlr4 := (sourceManaged in Compile).value

helps, but I still need to run sbt "antlr4:antlr4Generate" to make IntelliJ happy.

Is there a better way to do this?

@mpollmeier Thanks for your comment. antlr4 subdirectory path was added because of the issue in sbt-idea plugin. You can see the commit log here: b706e72

I think it's okay to remove antlr4 subdirectory path in the next version. It seems that many people are now using Intellij's native support of sbt instead of sbt-idea plugin.

Interesting how everything revolves around intellij on this issue.
Thanks for the clarification, and the plugin :)
Shall we leave this issue open as a reminder to remove, and in case others are having the same problem?

Is there a workaround for this? Can I just set javaSource in Antlr4 such that modern IntelliJ with the built-in SBT support will play nice?

The recommendation is now against using (sourceManaged in Compile).value altogether. Instead each plugin should roll out their own directory under target, and append to managedSourceDirectories in Compile. See sbt/sbt#1664 (comment)
