When I have 2 files with e.g. the Fowler state-machine DSL in a project folder and I press CTRL+space in a state I get event name suggestions from both state-machine files. How can I limit the suggestions to only display the event names from the file I'm editing?

Hi, are you sure you want to limit content assist only or do you want
to limit scoping in general (if you type stuff from the other file it
will be invalid too) regards Christian

Hi Christian,

I want to limit the scope too yes. I figured that one out. I guess I now need to change the ProposalProvider

No scoping and proposals go hand in hand so you have to change
scoping only e.g by switching to importuri based scoping

Hmm, how would I do that?
So I have my ScopeProvider return only the states and events from the current file (so now it throws errors when I try to reference an event/state in the other file). My impression was that I need to change the ProposalProvider to limit what is shown in the content assistance (although initially I thought I only needed scoping, which is what you are telling me). How do I switch to importuri based scoping?

I did change the workflow to enable ImportURIScopingFragment

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

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

However, it still shows me the events from my other file. I must be missing something.

Hi Christian,

Thanks! That works Smile

. It's actually simpeler than I thought it should be. To recap for others, I only needed to change the following in the MWE2 workflow:

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

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

AND

//fragment = types.TypesGeneratorFragment {}

I did not have to write any scoping rules.
