traceability and injector in xText [message #1245362]

Hi,

We're starting a project about traceability, and trying to find information about traceability options in xText. I didn't find anything, but perhaps I'm in a wrong direction, I would appreciate any reference to take into account.

We know that MOFScript engine produces trace links from model elements into the generated text, and we wonder whether if xText offers something similar.

And also, is there something similar to a 'model injector'? a module that, giving a code, obtains each corresponding model (i.e., it injects the code into a model)?

Thanks in advance,

Aran

Xtext provides traces from the source text to the AST through the node model.
Code generators don'T automatically crete trace files. The generator for Xbase does that, but if you have your own you'll need to do that manually.
