navigating through an importURI statement [message #676828]

I really like the navigation available in the editor produced by Xtext.

There is however one thing that I miss: the possibility to access directly a file pointed out by an importURI statement.

i.e. I have one statement like

open path/to/my/file

that is managed in our grammar using an importURI,
and I would like to be able to click on it to open that file.

Is it possible with Xtext 1.0.2?

Hello Daniel, you have to Implement a custom HyperlinkHelper.

	@Override
	public void createHyperlinksByOffset(XtextResource resource, int offset, IHyperlinkAcceptor acceptor) {
		super.createHyperlinksByOffset(resource, offset, acceptor);
		TextLocation loc = new TextLocation();
		EObject eObject = EObjectAtOffsetHelper.resolveElementAt(resource, offset, loc);
//check if eObject is an Import
//get the uri
//create the hyperlink
}

Let you inspire by the code of
org.eclipse.xtext.example.ui.navigation.DomainmodelHyperlinkHelper
org.eclipse.xtext.ui.editor.hyperlinking.HyperlinkHelper
