The xpand/xtend editors do not work for me! [message #487344] Tue, 22 September 2009 15:25 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Has anybody ever managed to get the
expand/extend editors to work?

Here is what I try (a flash screen cast):

http://scharf.gr/eclipse/bugs/xpand/xpand-problems/

I am not able to get the xtext/xpand editors to
work correctly.

What am I doing wrong???

I have no experience in the combination of xtext and xpand
but one question:

from your generator project: are the ecore models on the classpath ?

the workflow and the editor have different behaviour:
for the xpand editor its important to find all on the classpath

Hi Michael,

the generated generator project assumes the emf metamodel to be
activated. Please check Eclipse->Preferences->Xtend->EMF Metamodel.
This can be configured by project as well. Project -> Properties->Xtend

Hope that helps,
Sebastian

he says there's no EMF Metamodel to choose (Project -> Properties -> Xtend)
