I need the name of the project in which the DSL source clicked by the user is located to create som file within a JEE project.

I have seen, with the debugger, that is is available in the IFileSystemAccess fsa, but it is certainly private and I can't access it.

How can I get it ?

hi

you can get it from the resource.
the resource has an URI
how you translate between uri and eclipse resources can be found here

https://wiki.eclipse.org/EMF/FAQ#How_do_I_map_between_an_EMF_Resource_and_an_Eclipse_IFile.3F

Please note: this will only work in an osgi environment.
in an standalone envionent you have to map between URI and the File System
