Hi,
I am experiencing problems when serializing a cross-reference when using Xtext in a stand-alone context.
Below is a sample program that reproduces the serialization problem.
@Test
public void testCrossReferencing() {
ResourceSet resourceSet = new XtextResourceSet();
DomainModel dm = XXXFactory.eINSTANCE.createDomainModel();
dm.setName("TypesModel");
Type t = XXXFactory.eINSTANCE.createType();
t.setName("Integer");
dm.getElements().add(t);
URI uri1 = URI.createPlatformResourceURI("sample.tests/models/tmp/TypesModel.hddd");
Resource rs1 = resourceSet.createResource(uri1);
rs1.getContents().add(dm);
TypedElement te = XXXFactory.eINSTANCE.createTypedElement();
te.setType(t);
te.setName("attr");
ValueObject vo = XXXFactory.eINSTANCE.createValueObject();
vo.setName("VO1");
vo.getAttributes().add(te);
DomainModel dm2 = XXXFactory.eINSTANCE.createDomainModel();
dm2.setName("DataModel");
dm2.getElements().add(vo);
URI uri2 = URI.createPlatformResourceURI("sample.tests/models/tmp/DataModel.hddd");
Resource rs2 = resourceSet.createResource(uri2);
rs2.getContents().add(dm2);
try {
rs1.save(Collections.EMPTY_MAP);
rs2.save(Collections.EMPTY_MAP);
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
rs2 contains a cross-reference from the TypedElement object to a TypeObject in rs1 via the type reference. The resulting stack trace upon saving rs2 is the following:
java.lang.RuntimeException: No EObjectDescription could be found in Scope TypedElement.type for DomainModel'TypesModel'.elements[0]->Type'Integer'
Semantic Object: DomainModel'DataModel'.elements[0]->ValueObject'VO1'.attributes[0]->TypedElement'attr'
at org.eclipse.xtext.serializer.diagnostic.ISerializationDiagnostic$ExceptionThrowingAcceptor.accept(ISerializationDiagnostic.java:77)
at
...
I have debugged the code up until the point that I could indeed verify that the scope is empty. No candidates exist to resolve the cross-reference.
From loading Xtext resources, I know that cross-references are only resolved when all resources are contained by the XtextResourceSet, so I expected something similar when adding and saving resources.
However, this doesn't seem to be the case. My question therefore is: how to update the index when adding new resources to the resourceset, such that the cross-references get resolved upon serialization of cross-references in Xtext resources?
Kind regards,
Niels Brouwers.

I dont get that Part of the question. In standalone mode the global scope
is the sum of all resources in the resourceset but what about your
customization to the scope

Can you please Share a complete example
