I want to use my xtext app as an external jar.
in order to validate a file that should be in my dsl language.

1) i don't know how to load the file to my jar. how should the dsl acknowledge the file i order to parse it?
2) any suggestions about the process?


thanks,
dana

Hi I am not sure what you want to do. Where is the file you are
talking about and what do you want to do with it?

Hi thank you for the quick response!

I have the xtext project that until now i would run it as a plug in.

now i want to create a new project (Main.java) using and import the jar file of the xtext
and by giving the new project (Main.java) a file path string it will run the dsl and check if the file corresponding to the language rules.

how do i combine the xtext so it will go over the file like it did in the plug in?

Hi you may set the generatejavamain in the codegeneratorfragment to
true to get such a main generated (at least as starting point)

so does it work or doesnt it?

i asked you to open the workflow and edit the generatorfragment and set
generateJavaMain = true

=> you will get a java main that reads the model.
alternatively:
