Hi
When i create un new language using Xtext, tutorial say only how to run it in the development environment (using Run As -> Eclipse Application ). But i would like to make a newly created language available in any new Eclipse project without running first my Xtext project.
Please Help

Export the non-test Eclipse projects as "Deployable Plug-ins or Fragments", drop the resulting .jar files in the dropins/ (preferred, but didn't always work for me) or plugins/ folder of an Eclipse that also has the Xtext runtime dependencies (among which EMF) and (re-)start that Eclipse (which might be the same Eclipse as your DSL development one).
