Making my DSL independent of JDT [message #658273]

I am developing an application called Mads. I am using XText to produce a DSL that is used to define my models, without a generator, and have two additional plug-ins, one to process the model and one to provide help.

I would like to be able to get it running on its own by installing my plug-ins plus the minimum required on the Eclipse Platform distribution. I am using Eclipse 3.6.2 and XText 2.:

I have edited my MadsUiModule as per the XText help to make my DSL JDT-independent:

public class MadsUiModule extends fr.msimeon.mads.ui.AbstractMadsUiModule {
public MadsUiModule(AbstractUIPlugin plugin) {
super(plugin);
}
// Making Mads independent from the JDK

// remove the bindings to components with support for the ' classpath:' URI protocol
@Override
public Class<? extends IResourceForEditorInputFactory>
bindIResourceForEditorInputFactory() {
return ResourceForIEditorInputFactory.class;
}

@Override
public Class<? extends IResourceSetProvider> bindIResourceSetProvider() {
return SimpleResourceSetProvider.class;
}

// configure the global scope provider to scan project root folders instead of the classpath of Java projects.
@Override
public com.google.inject.Provider
<org.eclipse.xtext.resource.containers.IAllContainersState>
provideIAllContainersState() {
return org.eclipse.xtext.ui.shared.Access.getWorkspaceProjectsState ();
}
}

But I am unable to get my application running without JDT installed.

Any suggestion on how to proceed would be appreciated.

Look at https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=336217
which shows how it can be done in Xtext 1.0 (but reports that it is
broken in 2.0).

Thank you for your reply.

Any idea if the issue will be fixed in the future ?
