Enhancing warnings from validator with resolve actions [message #1838488]

Hi everybody,

I have a quick question regarding the output of warnings/errors during DSL validation.

For my DSL I created a DslValidator and it works fine, showing my errors and warnings etc. For this I use the inherited warning() and error() methods from AbstractDeclarativeValidator .

Now I would like to also show the user some kind of context menu, with an action to fix the problem causing the warning. I imagine something similar to the "organize imports" on unused imports in the Eclipse IDE.

Is something like this possible and I'm just unable to find the proper method? Does anyone have any ideas / pointers?

Hi, the concept you are looking for is called QuickFix in eclipse and code action is LSP

Need professional support for Xtext, Xpand, EMF?
