           Summary: When using the html option the antlr task doesn't
                    recognised whether the target is up-to-date and thus
                    executes superfluous compilations.

When using the html option the antlr task doesn't recognised whether the target 
is up-to-date and thus executes superfluous compilations.

I have tracked down the bug to some extend in the source code, in essence the 
problem is that the method getGeneratedFile() in class 
org.apache.ant.taskdefs.optional.ANTLR (line 348) only deduces the output File 
correctly if the generated file is a ".java" file (which is not the case if the 
html option is specified). A fix to the particular problem is to replace line 
367:

return new File(outputDirectory, generatedFileName + ".java");
--------------------------------------------------------------

with

return new File(outputDirectory, generatedFileName + (html ? ".html" : ".java");
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

in file ANTLR.java (directory src/main/org/apache/tools/ant/taskdefs/optional/)

Moreover it might be desirable to investigate more thoroughly what types of 
output files antlr can produce and under what conditions, and make sure their 
name is always guessed correctly in the getGeneratedFile() method.
