Currently I have some validation in the main project which the UI project interprets as markers. I would like move that validation from the main project to the UI project, so that the parser is not concerned about it. Also I would like to add validations which need some data from preferences, so these have to be in the UI project as well, aimed to enrich the UI experience. What is the best way to plug in several model validations (preferably separate) which would get the marker-displaying support of Xtext?

Hi,

simply adding a binding similar to the one in the runtimemodule to the ui module doesnt work?

Thank you, it does! I didn't hope for it to ba that easy. It is not possible to bind multiple validators though. Also is there way to set when or how often the validation should be performed?

Hi,

as to multiple validators. You can let your UI-Validator extend the regular one and you can use the ComposedCheck annotation for "registering" further validator classes.
