I have a plugin that exports an EMF package (that is the plugin fragment)

   <extension point="org.eclipse.emf.ecore.generated_package">
      <package
            uri="http://www.eclipse.org/amalgam/tutorials/xtext/Droid"
            class="org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf.droid.DroidPackage"
            genModel="model/Droid.genmodel"/>
   </extension>

So, looking at the forum I found some alternatives to configure an Xtext project (1.0 version) to use the .ecore and .genmodel files contained in the plugin. I have already deployed the plugin and installed it in my running Eclipse.

At the .xtext file, I added the line:

import "http://www.eclipse.org/amalgam/tutorials/xtext/Droid"

But when I tried to run the MWE2 file, I got the following error message:

1882 [main] ERROR mf.mwe2.launch.runtime.Mwe2Launcher  - Problems instantiating module org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.xtext.Droid: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
[...]
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Problem parsing 'classpath:/org/eclipse/amalgam/tutorials/xtext/Droid.xtext':[XtextLinkingDiagnostic: null:18 Couldn't resolve reference to EPackage 'http://www.eclipse.org/amalgam/tutorials/xtext/Droid'., XtextLinkingDiagnostic: null:45 [...]

So I made some research in the forums and found some suggestions (none of them worked):

First try:
Add a referenceGenModels to the ecore.EcoreGeneratorFragment

// generates Java API for the generated EPackages 
fragment = ecore.EcoreGeneratorFragment {
	referencedGenModels = "platform:/plugin/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.genmodel"
}

Second Try
Use an uriMap to map the plugin genmodel and ecore to a resource URI

bean = StandaloneSetup {
	platformUri = "${runtimeProject}/.."
		
	uriMap = {
		from	= " platform:/plugin/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.genmodel "
		to 	= " platform:/resource/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.genmodel "
	}

	uriMap = {
		from	= " platform:/plugin/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.ecore "
		to 	= " platform:/resource/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.ecore "
	}

}

// generates Java API for the generated EPackages 
fragment = ecore.EcoreGeneratorFragment {
	referencedGenModels = "platform:/resource/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.genmodel"
}

What is wrong? Why the Ecore metamodel can be imported (import "http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore" as ecore) and works like magic?

Thank you!

Hi,

did you try to map the plugin uri to a classpath uri? you may have to add a savemapping too

This didn't work:

Workflow {
    bean = StandaloneSetup {
		platformUri = "${runtimeProject}/.."
		
		uriMap = {
			from	= "platform:/plugin/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.genmodel"
			to 		= "classpath:/model/Droid.genmodel"
		}
		
		uriMap = {
			from	= "platform:/plugin/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.ecore"
			to 		= "classpath:/model/Droid.ecore"
		}
		
	}

[...]
			// generates Java API for the generated EPackages 
			fragment = ecore.EcoreGeneratorFragment {
				referencedGenModels = "platform:/plugin/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.genmodel"

				saveMapping = {
					to		= "platform:/plugin/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.genmodel"
					from 	= "classpath:/model/Droid.genmodel"
				}
				
				saveMapping = {
					to		= "platform:/plugin/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.ecore"
					from 	= "classpath:/model/Droid.ecore"
				}

			}

I made a few tries in the Xtext grammar file too:

import "http://www.eclipse.org/amalgam/tutorials/xtext/Droid"

and

import "platform:/plugin/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.ecore"

Didn't work.

Let me explain what I'm trying to do: I made some tutorials about the EMF DSL tools (Xtext, Acceleo, EEF, etc) and they all share the same metamodel. I choosed to use Xtext to create the ecore metamodel, and now I'm trying to extract this metamodel to its own eclipse plugin, and use this plugin as a dependency to the other tutorials.

Hi,

can you be a bit more precise on: This didn't work.
Did you set the plugin deps? what is the error message you get?
if you have control on the metamodel plugin why don't letg it be part of the workspace and use
import "platform:/resource/..." in your xtext file

and make sure you map from the right from to the right to

Btw, the following works like a charm for me (Xtext 1.0.x) - using no genmodels nor platform/plugin stuff at all

grammar org.xtext.example.mydsl.MyDsl with org.eclipse.xtext.common.Terminals

import "http://www.example.com/test"

Model:
	elements+=Element*;
	
Element:
	'element' name=ID;

module org.xtext.example.mydsl.MyDsl

import org.eclipse.emf.mwe.utils.*
import org.eclipse.xtext.generator.*
import org.eclipse.xtext.ui.generator.*

var grammarURI = "classpath:/org/xtext/example/mydsl/MyDsl.xtext"
var file.extensions = "mydsl"
var projectName = "org.xtext.example.mydsl"
var runtimeProject = "../${projectName}"

Workflow {
    bean = StandaloneSetup {
		platformUri = "${runtimeProject}/.."
		registerGeneratedEPackage = "test.TestPackage"
	}

	component = DirectoryCleaner {
		directory = "${runtimeProject}/src-gen"
	}

	component = DirectoryCleaner {
		directory = "${runtimeProject}.ui/src-gen"
	}

	component = Generator {
		pathRtProject = runtimeProject
		pathUiProject = "${runtimeProject}.ui"
		projectNameRt = projectName
		projectNameUi = "${projectName}.ui"
		language = {
			uri = grammarURI
			fileExtensions = file.extensions

			// Java API to access grammar elements (required by several other fragments)
			fragment = grammarAccess.GrammarAccessFragment {}

			// generates Java API for the generated EPackages 
			fragment = ecore.EcoreGeneratorFragment {
			// referencedGenModels = "uri to genmodel, uri to next genmodel"
			}

			// the serialization component
			fragment = parseTreeConstructor.ParseTreeConstructorFragment {}

			// a custom ResourceFactory for use with EMF 
			fragment = resourceFactory.ResourceFactoryFragment {
				fileExtensions = file.extensions
			}

			// The antlr parser generator fragment.
			fragment = parser.antlr.XtextAntlrGeneratorFragment {
			//  options = {
			//		backtrack = true
			//	}
			}

			// java-based API for validation 
			fragment = validation.JavaValidatorFragment {
				composedCheck = "org.eclipse.xtext.validation.ImportUriValidator"
				composedCheck = "org.eclipse.xtext.validation.NamesAreUniqueValidator"
				// registerForImportedPackages = true
			}

			// scoping and exporting API
			// fragment = scoping.ImportURIScopingFragment {}
			// fragment = exporting.SimpleNamesFragment {}

			// scoping and exporting API 
			fragment = scoping.ImportNamespacesScopingFragment {}
			fragment = exporting.QualifiedNamesFragment {}
			fragment = builder.BuilderIntegrationFragment {}

			// formatter API 
			fragment = formatting.FormatterFragment {}

			// labeling API 
			fragment = labeling.LabelProviderFragment {}

			// outline API 
			fragment = outline.TransformerFragment {}
			fragment = outline.OutlineNodeAdapterFactoryFragment {}
			fragment = outline.QuickOutlineFragment {}

			// quickfix API 
			fragment = quickfix.QuickfixProviderFragment {}

			// content assist API  
			fragment = contentAssist.JavaBasedContentAssistFragment {}

			// generates a more lightweight Antlr parser and lexer tailored for content assist  
			fragment = parser.antlr.XtextAntlrUiGeneratorFragment {}

			// project wizard (optional) 
			// fragment = projectWizard.SimpleProjectWizardFragment {
			// 		generatorProjectName = "${projectName}.generator" 
			//		modelFileExtension = file.extensions
			// }
		}
	}
}

Thank you for your help. I guess I'm missing something. Let me clarify the things. That is my project repository: https://github.com/eclipse-soc/amalgamation-examples

I started with the Xtext plugins[1]. Now I want to extract the generated .ecore to its own plugin. I want to do this for two reasons: first, I want to have the .ecore file in just one place, and add a dependency to it where it is needed; second, I want to investigate this task and include it in the tutorial.

So I created a EMF project, copied the .ecore and generated a new .genmodel, created the editor and modified it to use EEF. The result are the EMF plugins[2].

What I did:

0) Exported and installed the EMF plugin (org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf)

1) In the Xtext plugin (org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.xtext) I added a dependency to the EMF plugin and enabled the "Reexport this dependency" option

2) In the Xtext plugin I removed the defined extension (I wanted to make this plugin reexport the genmodel from the EMF plugin:

  <extension point="org.eclipse.emf.ecore.generated_package">
    <package 
       uri = "http://www.eclipse.org/amalgam/tutorials/xtext/Droid" 
       class = "org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.xtext.droid.DroidPackage"
       genModel = "org/eclipse/amalgam/tutorials/xtext/Droid.genmodel" /> 
	
  </extension>

3) In the Droid.xtext file, I changed

generate droid "http://www.eclipse.org/amalgam/tutorials/xtext/Droid"

import "http://www.eclipse.org/amalgam/tutorials/emf/Droid"

At this point I got no error (in the Editor). But when I ran the MWE2 Workflow I got an error message [3]

4) Made some tries as reported in my first post [4]:

First Try:
Added a referencedGenModels to the ecore.EcoreGeneratorFragment

referencedGenModels = "platform:/plugin/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.genmodel"

Result: Same error [3]

Second Try:
Added two URI maps to the StandaloneSetup :

	
	uriMap = {
		from	= " platform:/plugin/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.genmodel "
		to 	= " platform:/resource/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.genmodel "
	}

	uriMap = {
		from	= " platform:/plugin/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.ecore "
		to 	= " platform:/resource/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.ecore "
	}

}

and changed the referencedGenModels to the mapped URI

referencedGenModels = "platform:/resource/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.genmodel"

Result: Same error, just a different beggining:

0    [main] INFO  lipse.emf.mwe.utils.StandaloneSetup  - Registering platform uri '/Users/juniorz/GSoC/gsoc-amalgamation-examples/xtext/plugins'
98   [main] INFO  lipse.emf.mwe.utils.StandaloneSetup  - Adding URI mapping from 'platform:/plugin/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.genmodel' to 'platform:/resource/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.genmodel'
99   [main] INFO  lipse.emf.mwe.utils.StandaloneSetup  - Adding URI mapping from 'platform:/plugin/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.ecore' to 'platform:/resource/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.ecore'

Third Try:
Tried your suggestion [5] as stated in my last post, and got the same error [3]
Result: the same error [3].

For all the experiments I tried to use both

import "platform:/resource/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.ecore"

and

import "platform:/plugin/org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf/model/Droid.ecore"

in the .xtext. Got no error from the editor, but got the same error [3] from the generator.

Hi,

import "http://www.eclipse.org/amalgam/tutorials/emf/Droid"

and

    bean = StandaloneSetup {
		platformUri = "${runtimeProject}/.."
		registerGeneratedEPackage="org.eclipse.amalgam.tutorials.emf.droid.DroidPackage"
	}

works for me. guess you don't need this genmodel stuff if you just want to use the imported metamodel and do not generate any metamodel by xtext at all.
