All,

I tried to generate an Xtext project from ecore. The dialog had me select a *.genmodel, which I did, and the project was generated; but the *.xtext file is filled with errors. It can't find, for example, EString. Neither can it find the generated emf specified in the *.genmodel. I did include the project containing the *.genmodel on the eclipse build path like I would do for any eclipse project.

Am I doing thing right? Is this how text is supposed to work? I am proceeding under the assumption that Xtext uses the eclipse classpath, am I correct?

Thanks

Does the gen model and ecore containing project have Xtext nature (right click configure convert to Xtext project)

Usually emf should be on the classpath. Can you share a reproducing example?

Thanks Christian, I discovered my problem is not actually with EMF dependencies, but within the *.genmodel I am using. It was created by others, I am taking the matter up with them.
