Is it possible to deliver a basic dsl model in the target platform? [message #1258945]

Hi there,

I have developed a dsl and some basic models for this dsl.
I want other users to build on these basic models, but I want to avoid them having to import my source models into their workspace. Is it possible to deliver these basic models as plugins for their target platform.
Whenever I try this, my plugin packaged model elements are not indexed by Xtext.

Is there anything I can do or is this not supported?

Thanks,
Axel

I have doubts about this too.

Only thing i know is that you need the XTEXT installed plus your plugin to run the editor.

Hi,

thanks for the hint!
Actually my basic models were on the client classpath, but the client models themselves were not in a Java source folder and moving them to one actually solved the problem.

However, somehow the dsl generator is now invoked on all models now (including the basic models) in the client model project and not in their own projects.
It doesn't really hurt, but it is weird, since it isn't like this if the basic model projects are imported into the client workspace.
