Integrate Xtext editor in Sirius Properties [message #1822004]

Hello,

I managed to integrate the Xtext editor in Sirius Properties View by using a custom widget and following the examples from https://github.com/ObeoNetwork/Xtext-Sirius-integration and https://github.com/ObeoNetwork/Flow-Designer .
Having the editor in the properties view is the only requirement, I don't need to open an embedded Xtext editor or other facilities.

How can I limit the content of the editor to show only the content of the node that is selected in the representation (in this case, the blue circle from the representation.png picture attached)?
In the textual representation that would be the correspondent of the line 11 (file.png picture attached), with the mention that is in fact a hierarchy of emf objects.

Thank you!

Kind Regards,

Alexandra

Hello Alexandra,

I think that this integration of Xtext within Sirius diagram will work for you [1] [2] [3].

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Anthony

Hi

My understanding is that Xtext edits a Resource corresponding to a document, consequently if you want to edit only a fraction of an overall document, you need to be able to present what you regard as a sub-document as a full document to Xtext.

For OCL with OCLinEcore and CompleteOCL full documents, the EssentialOCL sub-grammar supports editing a single expression, using a TransientASResource to avoid persisting all the partial contents.
