How can i generate PlantUML code for my whole model, not for the current file (mydsl) only?

At the moment I'm using:

override String getDiagramText(IEditorPart editorPart, IEditorInput editorInput) {
        // Retrieve the "semantic" EMF from XtextEditor
        val document = (editorPart as XtextEditor).getDocumentProvider().getDocument(editorInput) as XtextDocument;
        val DomainModel model = document.readOnly[
            return contents.head as DomainModel
        ]
.....

Sorry, but I'm a Eclipse/XText/PlantUML newbie Embarrassed

Thanks Simon

have a look at "allContents" I think (depending on the ScopeProvider) this will access all the DSLs in the workspace.

This example is from the XTEXT Project
// fsa.generateFile('greetings.txt', 'People to greet: ' +
// resource.allContents
// .filter(typeof(Greeting))
// .map[name]
// .join(', '))

For code generation the proper hook is IGenerator.
Or do you want to get PlantUML file on the fly to show it in a view,
i.e. see the dirty editor's state as a diagram?

Also what is the 'whole model'? How do you know which files contribute
to that?

Sorry for my bad english.

I have a model (mydsl) with interfaces, components, layer ...

...
DomainModel:
	(types+=Type)*
	(layer+=Layer)*
	(threads+=ParentThread)*
	(interfaces+=Interface)*
	(components+=Component)*
	(applications+=Application)*;
...

Now i have e.g. many different files (*.mydsl)
One file for each component and so one p.p.

Code generation works fine for me.
Now i need one PlantUML diagram for all files togehter to visualize my (component) model.

Thx Simon

Note, that you are deactivating incremental build with this approach,
that is you will load and process all models on every tiny change.

Alternatively, you could register an explicit action just to generate
the PlantUML model, so you separate that generation from the rest.
