[Xtend] Editor shows wrong errors [message #537686]

Hi there,

I'm creating an xtend file with the xtend text editor.

I have two metamodels, one using the other where

metamodelA.ecore: Class NamedObject, field name:String
metamodelB.ecore: Class Entity extends NamedObject

An xtend file has:

---
import metamodelA;
import metamodelB;

Void test(metamodelB::Entity entity):
entity.setName("Test")
;
---

Actually the transformation works fine, when I execute it.
However, the Xtend editor shows a problem marker:

"Couldn't find operation 'setName(String)' 'for type metamodelB::Entity'"

I copied the ecore files to the same folder as the xtend file but this
did not help. Anything else I need to do to register the metamodels in
my current workspace? They already get registered in the workflow, but I
guess the xtend editor is not aware of the workflow file...

Hello Hauke,

how do the metamodels / ecore file reference each other?
Namespace / File Location? ...

Regards,
Christian

Could be a bug. Would you open a bug report and attach the sample project?

My installation shows the same behaviour even I use only one metamodel. Furthermore the editor shows the problem that it cannot recognize the used namespace («IMPORT com::smc::ps::mdd::vS» in my case). Also the project specific extensions are not recognized.
