Is it possible to write the DSL validations in Xtend2?
It would be nice to use the Xtend features in this place.

I've tried to create a module MyDslValidator.xtend in the example project:

package org.xtext.example.mydsl.validation

import org.eclipse.xtext.validation.Check
import org.xtext.example.mydsl.myDsl.*
import org.xtext.example.mydsl.myDsl.MyDslPackage

class MyDslValidator extends AbstractMyDslJavaValidator {

//	@Check
//	public void checkUniqueAttrNameIgC (Attribute a)
//	{
//		Entity e = (Entity)(a.eContainer());
//		for ( Attribute a1 : e.getAttributes() ) {
//			if ( a1 == a ) continue;
//			if ( a.getName().toUpperCase().equals(a1.getName().toUpperCase()) )	{
//				warning("Names should be unique ignoring case", 
//						MyDslPackage.Literals.ATTRIBUTE__NAME);
//			}
//		}
//	}
	
	@Check
	def void checkUniqueAttrNameIgC (Attribute a)
	{
		if ( (a.eContainer as Entity).attributes
				.filter( a1 | a.name.toUpperCase == a1.name.toUpperCase)
				.size == 1 )
			return
		error("Names should be unique ignoring case",
			MyDslPackage.Literals.ATTRIBUTE__NAME)
	}
}

but the MyDslPackage.Literals.ATTRIBUTE__NAME causes problems

- Couldn't resolve reference to JvmIdentifiableElement 'ATTRIBUTE__NAME'.
- Couldn't resolve reference to JvmIdentifiableElement 'Literals'.
- Couldn't resolve reference to JvmIdentifiableElement 'MyDslPackage'.

Hi,

the Syntax is MyDslPackage$Literals::GREETING__NAME. of couse you have to import MydslPackage Wink

Hi Nikolai!

You should subclass the original validator, since the workflow would recreate the Java stub again which conflicts with the generated Xtend class.

Hi Christian and Karsten,

thanks a lot for the quick help. This way it works fine:

.../org.xtext.example.mydsl/src/org/xtext/example/mydsl/validation/MyDslXtendValidator.xtend

package org.xtext.example.mydsl.validation

import org.eclipse.xtext.validation.Check
import org.xtext.example.mydsl.myDsl.*

class MyDslXtendValidator extends MyDslJavaValidator {
	@Check
	def checkUniqueAttrNameIgC (Attribute a)
	{
		if ( (a.eContainer as Entity).attributes
				.filter( a1 | a.name.toUpperCase == a1.name.toUpperCase)
				.size == 1 )
			return;
		error("Names should be unique ignoring case",
			  MyDslPackage$Literals::ATTRIBUTE__NAME
		)
	}
}

and add in

.../org.xtext.example.mydsl/src/org/xtext/example/mydsl/MyDslRuntimeModule.java

public class MyDslRuntimeModule extends org.xtext.example.mydsl.AbstractMyDslRuntimeModule {
	// contributed by org.eclipse.xtext.generator.validation.JavaValidatorFragment
	@org.eclipse.xtext.service.SingletonBinding(eager=true)	
	public Class<? extends org.xtext.example.mydsl.validation.MyDslJavaValidator> bindMyDslJavaValidator() {
		return org.xtext.example.mydsl.validation.MyDslXtendValidator].class;
	}
}
