Content assist and STRING objects [message #559068]

Hello dear Xtext community,

Just a small question about content assist proposal. I try to customize the Ctrl+space proposal when the grammar states something like: myValue=STRING with STRING defined in org.eclipse.xtext.common.Terminals

When I encounter myValue, the content assist will automatically propose "myValue" as a possible (and only one) value. How can I override this behaviour and propose a customized message ? Is that on the documentation ?

Looks like the default ProposalProvider calls a completeRuleCall (...) with a rule named "STRING". But I couldn't find any AbstractRule implementation (never used ?) nor understand what's behind that completeRuleCall method Surprised

.

Thanks and sorry if that question was already answered, I couldn't find it on the archives.

Jérôme

Hi,

you have to overwrite

public void complete_STRING(EObject model, RuleCall ruleCall,
ContentAssistContext context, ICompletionProposalAcceptor acceptor)

Okay I get it, I didn't realize that types defined in org.eclipse.xtext.common.Terminals were handled in the org.eclipse.xtext.common.ui.contentassist.TerminalsProposalP rovider.

Thanks a lot, I'll find my way now Cool
