Hello,

I wan to scope by reference to existing in-memory ecore objects from xText DSL editor. I intend to do this by subtyping/mapping the types defined in the ecore model from the types defined in my xText DSL at runtime.

Essentially, I want to achieve a content-assist with elements from the in-memory ecore objects, which are not created using my xText DSL. How can I achieve such functionalities in Xtext. Thank you for your help.


Best,
/Nas

Depends on the lifecycle of the ecore objects. If these models are alive (changing) maybe this blogpost can help:

If the are fixed at runtime, you could just add them in the scopes your scope provider produces. Maybe even the global scope provider.
