xtext with multiple file extensions [message #1736893]

Hi,

Can I have multiple file extensions for xtext editor?

I can have extensions like test.jpl, test.scr, test.jam. All have the same type of parser rules.

Is it possible to configure it in the .mwe2 file as a comma-separated list.

After adding the comma separated extension in .mwe2 file I generated artifacts. Nothing has changed in plugin.xml_gen. Contents in plugin.xml and plugin.xml_gen are same.

can you share e.g. the

<extension point="org.eclipse.xtext.builder.participant">
<participant
class="org.xtext.example.mydsl.ui.MyDslExecutableExtensionFactory:org.eclipse.xtext.builder.IXtextBuilderParticipant"
fileExtensions="mydsl"/>
</extension>

of the plugin.xml in mydsl.ui
