how to check the condition for instance of class had been created in xtext editor [message #1807441]

Hi,
I have created xtext projects using existing ecore model. There i have one condition like instance of class should be only one.
In Xtext editor on doing contrl+space it will list down the class names to be created. In my editor i want to create class instance only once, means again on doing control+space it should not show the created class name in the list only.
i am attaching images for better understanding.
Any one can please help me how i can do this kind of validations in editor.

Thanks!

simply filter the proposals.
have a look what xtext generates in the abstractyourdslproposal provider and customize it to your needs
alternatively you could do the filtering inside the scopeprovider too. (might need use of nodemodelutils)

Thanks for quick replay. i had a look at proposalprovider class.
i am not able achieve one thing here that is, first time on doing ctrl+space in editor it will show the list . from that list i will select one thing. now what i want is again on doing ctrl+space the one which i have created it should not shown in the list . i tried by overriding the method complete[elementname]_[Featurename]() but still it is not working.
How i can achieve this?

There is a complete xxxx method for your reference
Override it. Have a look at what the super impl does
It calls lookupCrossReference
There are variants that have a filter
Call it with a filter you implement yourself
Instead of the always true filter

The method also has a filter method that gives you access to the current model
