Creating two xtext grammar files within one project [message #1799653] Wed, 12 December 2018 00:35 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Hi,
I'm developing a DSL using Xtext and I need to separate the grammar definitions into different xtext files in the same project so that it is easy to handle, then import the necessary file when required. Is it possible to do so?
Can anyone kindly help me implement this?
Regards.

Simply put multiple language sections to the workflow

Hi Christian,
Thanks for the reply. I did add it to the Mwe2 workflow as I have seen instructions by you in another question in this forum. I also create a file named OfflineExpression.xtext. But when I did and tried to build the workflow, I get the below error in the console (I believe the reason for this is the grammar url of the OfflineExpression.xtext file being incorrect): -

Below is the content of my workflow: -

Below is the content of OfflineExpression.xtext: -

grammar io.typefox.xtext.langserver.example.OfflineExpression with org.eclipse.xtext.common.Terminals

generate offlineExpression "http://www.typefox.io/xtext/langserver/example/OfflineExpression"


I get an error at 'generate offlineExpression "http://www.typefox.io/xtext/langserver/example/OfflineExpression"' saying 'required (...)+ loop did not match anything at input '<EOF>''
Could you please tell me how this should be corrected?

Hi,
I realized this error was because my OfflineExpression.xtext file had no grammar declared in it. When I added a simple grammar, the workflow built fine.
Thank you!
