Need help with Contentassist [message #896691]

Hi everybody,

I have made a very simple grammar to test xbase, the grammar looks like this:

Model: 
          importedNamespace=Import
          xbaseTest=XBaseTest
;

XBaseTest:
	'xBaseTest' name=ID '{' 
	'xExpressions' query=XExpression 
	'}'
	;

Import:
	'import' importedNamespace=FqnWithWildCard;

FqnWithWildCard:
	FQN ('.*')?;


FQN:
	ID ('.' ID)*;

The grammar works as espected, but contentassist is not working correctly.
The keywords are proposed by contentassist, but not the curly brackets in XBaseTest and the name=ID. From other example grammars I know that these can be proposed by xtext and I thought this would be the standard behaviour.

Can you give me a hint on how to implement such contentassists?
Eg when I type xBaseTest in the editor, the contentassist should propose "ID" or something like this....

Thanks in advance,
Amneris
