Using DSL outside Eclipse [message #1102993]

Hello,

I'm a little bit confused about what's the easiest way to get my DSL working outside Eclipse.

My DSL works fine (in Eclipse) and now I'd like to generate Java source from my DSL source files without Eclipse. I don't want to generate any of this Eclipse stuff!!!

I tried to export the generator as mentioned by Sebastian Zarnekow, but run in trouble with dependencies of third party libs.

Other solutions seem to be rather complex. Before spending more time in this issue I would like to ask this question:

Is there a simple way to generate source from my DSL files in the generate-sources phase of a maven build?

This is the once and only thing I wanna do! No Eclipse stuff, no plugins, no updatesite, ...

Thanks in advance,
Andreas

The short answer: no.
The longer answer. If you need a jar containing all dependencies
create a main class in the mydsl project and run it once. Then use
the export -,> java -> runnable jar file wizard.

For the code calling standalonesetups traversing files or using the
reader component etc you have to care yourself

Mark sure your Main method calls both stanalonesetups
