Cross referenced element name is getting replaced [message #1808634]

Hi,

In my xtext project i am overriding qualifiedName() method from IQualifiedNameProvider.
As per my requirement i am returning element's path because if two elements have same name but present in different path xtext is not able to differentiate.
here my problem is on saving the editor, xtext is replacing the path to elemet's name, and it will give error couldn't resolve reference.
How i can avoid replacing. please any one can help.

Thanks!!

Hi, can you please give more details (grammar + model snippet) and what you mean by replacing (is it replacing caused by implicit imports like the parent name / first part of the name is the same)

Thanks for quick replay.

For example i am returning the name form qualifiedName() like this - "ElementName1 [/parentContainer1/parentContainer2/ElementName1]"
but after saving the file in editor it will display only "ElementName1".

I want to dispaly full path, how i can achieve that.

Save means here saving the dirty xtext editor, to save the edited contents

xtext does nothing on save
=> there must be something in your code
e.g. do you have a custom IXtextEditorCallback?

Yes i have. i am extending NatureAddingEditorCallback class and overrided afterCreatePartControl(). in that method i am not implementing any thing.
Because i do not want the dialog "Convert to xtext project".

Yes but Xtext does nothing on save
Maybe you have something installed activated
That edits eg text files on save
