Packages required to built-in xtext inside eclipse plugin [message #1732490]

Hi,

I have create xtext project and created feature project with all xtext artifacts.

But to run mydsl editor on any system I need to install xtext plugin externally then only mydsl editor works.

So I don't want to install xtext externally I want to provide xtext sdk along with my plugin. I tried adding so many packages comes with xtext inside my plugin but no luck. Can anyone tell what all the packages i need to bind inside my plugin? To work individually without xtext installation?

I'm not completely understanding this request.

It should be clear that you should not try to repackage Xtext in your plugin. I'm not sure if you are trying to do this.

I propose that you should create a (self-contained) p2 repository which contains your feature and all dependent plugins. p2 will take care that you bundle all necessary stuff into it.

From this repository you could install the editor to any Eclipse product.

Hi I am using xtext 2.9.2.

I have done with my xtext grammar. I want to create xtext plugin that can be installed on any ide without installing xtext.

I have created a feature project and select all the artifactss generated by xtext. But if install the plugin on any other system it is showing "required bundle..........." error. If I install xtext it is not showing error. I want to include xtext sdk in my plugin. But I don't know how to do it. Could you please explain?
