JVMModelInferrer - suppressing java code generation [message #898030] Wed, 25 July 2012 16:12 Go to next message

Hi,

we are writing an entity DSL that works really fine. It is based on Xbase and we are using the ModelInferrer to provide a JVMModel. This JVMModel will also be used to generate the jave code by Xbase internal JvmModelGenerator.
So far, everything is fine.

But now i have to suppress the generation of the java code.
Therefore i added a flag "no source" to my grammar. If true, then no java code should be generated. But the JVMModel should still be created by the JVMModelInferrer, so that JVM-elements can still be used / referenced inside the model. The only difference should be, that no java code output should be created.

Question: Is it possible to set a flag somewhere from / in the JVMModelInferrer to suppress the java code generation. Could not find anything.
Like this:
MyModelInferrer.class
if(model.noSource)
   setJavaCodeGen(false)
...


Additional info - practical usecase:
I have created a second model - JPA model. It can be used to address entities from the EntityModel and offers the semantics to redefine the JPA defaults. If not redefined, the JPA code for the selected entities is generated with a good default. But the java code generation must be supressed for the EntityModel. Only the JPAModel should generate the code in that case.
And the user can decide how he would like to use the model. Only generating entities for use without persistence. Or generating JPAEntities based on the entity model.

Following JPAModel will generate all entities contained in package your.jpa.* or my.jpa.* as JPAEntities. But the generation of the entity model should not be processed.
include your.jpa.*
include my.jpa.*

redefines your.jpa.Cat as noncacheable embeddable MyNewCat{
	schema MY_SCHEMA
	table MY_TABLE
}  


Thanks,
Florian

Guess you should customize jvmmodelgenerator.

Hi Flo,

you may want to use the IJvmModelAssociations to obtain the original
model and check the given flag in a custom generator implementation.

Regards,
Sebastian

Hi Christian, hi Sebastian,

thanks a lot! Great idea... Will implement it that way.

Best, Florian
