Hi,

I have a DSL where I want to be able to call into Java-Classes.
My garmmar:
Model:
	body = XBlockExpression
;

XPrimaryExpression returns XExpression:
	Call |
	XLiteral
;

Call returns XExpression:
    {Call}
    name = ValidID
    "calls"
    feature = [JvmType|QualifiedName]
    
    "("
    (parameters+=XAssignment ("," parameters+=XAssignment)*)?
    ")"
;


A file like:
{
    abc calls MyClass(a=1)
}


with MyClass being:
public class MyClass {	
	public int a;	
	public void execute() {
		System.out.println(a);
	}
}


shall be compiled to:
@SuppressWarnings("all")
public class example {
  public void run() {
    abc.a = 1;
    abc.execute();
    
  }  
  private Wrapper_MyClass abc = new Wrapper_MyClass();
}


So far this works. However, when I write
MyClass(a=1+1)
instead of
MyClass(a=1)
, I get an NullPointerException from the compiler:

It seems that the type of "1 + 1" is unknown during compilation, while validation does not give any errors.

The relevant part of my TypeComputer is:
    def _doComputeTypes(Call expr, ITypeComputationState state) {
        val c = expr.feature as JvmGenericType
        for(f : c.declaredFields) {
            state.addLocalToCurrentScope(f)
        }
        
        for(p: expr.parameters) {
            super.computeTypes(p, state)
        }
        
        state.acceptActualType(getPrimitiveVoid(state))
    }


Any ideas?

Many thanks,
Matthias

first you need to clone the computation state, like this:

val expressionState = state.withoutExpectation

then when computing the types on the assignments you don'T call super,
but you call

state.computeTypes(p)

Thanks Sven,

unfortunately this does not help.
The type of the right-hand-side assignment ist still null when the compiler calls _toJavaStatement.

This is how the TypeComputer now looks like:
    
    def _doComputeTypes(Call expr, ITypeComputationState state) {
        val c = expr.feature as JvmGenericType
        for(f : c.declaredFields) {
            state.addLocalToCurrentScope(f)
        }
        
        val expressionState = state.withoutExpectation
        
        for(p: expr.parameters) {
            expressionState.computeTypes(p)
        }
        
        state.acceptActualType(getPrimitiveVoid(state))
    }

Is your method really called, e.g. did you override #doComputeTypes to dispatch to your implementation?

Yes it is:

    override computeTypes(XExpression expression, ITypeComputationState state) {
        if(expression instanceof Call) {
            _doComputeTypes(expression as Call, state)
        }
        else {
            super.computeTypes(expression, state)            
        }
    }

I see that my bound ITypeComputer is called, at least during validation.
When compiling it seems the the bound ITypeProvider is called. This one seems to be lacking the type information.
Any idea?

What is also important is that I provide my own types for XStringLiteral and XNumberLiteral in the TypeComputer
