Import Resolution - XBase [message #1740739]

I have a requirement to convert XText/XBase based DSL to XML. I use XExpression and control the imports and Namespaces using XImportDeclaration (user Import) and XImportSectionNamespaceScopeProvider(implicit code import).
I am able to convert XExpression to my required String format using my custom code . However while doing that I could not resolve the Imports and convert the Class Names to Fully qualified Class Names with package name .
Can you guide me in the right direction.

For example :

import com.pkg1.Class1
someAction {
  Class1.method1("arg");
}

Expected Result after name space resolution:
<mytag>
     com.pkg1.Class1.method1("arg");    //Currently i get Class1.method1("arg");  
</mytag>

I don't get that question. Can you explain what you are technically doing.

There should be a reference to a jvm type inside the expression tree. This should be resolved and give you information on its qualified name

btw if you use xbase you should use XImportSectionNamespaceScopeProvider

I have a custom generator (extends from IGenerator) to convert DSL to XML.
In this generator I have a method to convert XExpression to String.

I am able to successfully inspect various Object types of XExpression and resolve the same to string. However, when i do that I would like to resolve the Imports to get the full name of the Class.

If there is an Manager Class in XBase where i can pass a class Name to find the fully qualified name with package from my generator , it will be very helpful.
