Library issue with New Project Wizard in 2.14 [message #1794411]

Hello,

my DSL offers a library with some built in operations.
When creating a Project using the New Project Wizard in 2.14 the references to these operations cannot be resolved even after I added the DSL Plugin to dependencies.
The old way, i.e. creating a simple Plugin Project, new file with DSL extension and adding the dependency, works just fine.

After comparing the two projects I added the following lines to the .project file of the project created with the new wizard and after restarting the runtime eclipse application it started working.

<buildCommand>
<name>org.eclipse.xtext.ui.shared.xtextBuilder</name>
<arguments>
</arguments>
</buildCommand>

This isn't really convenient.

Best regards,
Nikita

Xtext 2.14 adds a new API for New Project Wizards. You could use that to create your own project wizard easily, e.g. create your project structure, add natures & builders etc.

Yes, that's exactly what I'm doing, I created one project using the 2.14 new DSL project wizard and it's not working.

I have these lines in my mwe2 file:
projectWizard = {
generate = true
}
fileWizard = {
generate = true
}

Then I create my Project via New -> MyDSL Project, it lacks the dependency to MyDSL Plugin after creation and its .project looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<projectDescription>
	<name>qwert</name>
	<comment></comment>
	<projects>
	</projects>
	<buildSpec>
		<buildCommand>
			<name>org.eclipse.jdt.core.javabuilder</name>
			<arguments>
			</arguments>
		</buildCommand>
	</buildSpec>
	<natures>
		<nature>org.eclipse.jdt.core.javanature</nature>
		<nature>org.eclipse.pde.PluginNature</nature>
		<nature>org.eclipse.xtext.ui.shared.xtextNature</nature>
	</natures>
</projectDescription>
