port existing Eclipse Plugin to Intellij [message #1725770]

Hello,

we have created a plugin (drop-in) for Eclipse for our own DSL.
I try to port this plugin for usage in IntelliJ.

I already setup the project and i am able to create a "ideaZip" (IntelliJ Plugin Package)
my project also recognizes the dsl files and offers code-completion.

but within this dsl, there are also links to other dsl files, but intellij show me an error. Intellij does not recognize the object, which is defined in the other dsl file.

how can i make it possible, to use navigation to and recognition of objects?

Make sure the model project has the mydsl facet

(File menu -> project structure)

Hi,

i tried to add the facet, but it does not help.
added you on "Xing", so we can talk there.

i had a look with a mydsl and inter module refs work.

in your case i get referencing errors already inside the base file.
it looks like it has to do with naming.

besides this i dont know how a propery maven setup looks like in intellij,
but if i put a java class into base and try to reference it from data it cannot find the java file as well.

i created a new project and rebuilt your structure and it seems to work.

do you think it has to do something with the "parent" entries, which i did not have?

i have no idea on this as well (no grammar). - did you take a very same grammar and model files that worked in eclipse?

for me it looks there must be something missing e.g. and impl for implicit imports or qualifiednameprovider.
or there is a cross ref in the grammar that does not allow to parse certain things.

if i have a look at decimal-format the qualified name seems to be abcompany_default.datatype-decimal.decimal-format

since the datatype-decimal is a keyword you cannot write the qualified name
so there must be a implicit or explicit import for abcompany_default.datatype-decimal*
or the nameprovider must give it a different name.

from your code i seem many customization classes on scoping and stuff like that as that as well.
so do you have any unit tests that makes the base file beeing green?

and i am not faminilar with the details of the xtext idea impl.
but i have the feeling the idea support is still very clunky. at least when using this maven multi module stuff in idea
