New Xtext project from ECore - Packaging error [message #1835536]

Hi everyone,

I am trying to generate a Xtext from an Ecore metamodel.
The metamodel seems alright; containments checked, nsURI and prefixes set.

Now, when I start a "New Xtext project from an existing Ecore model", I get errors on a bunch of classes. The classes in question are all leafs of a same branch.

Here's what happen:
[There was here a clear descrption of the problem. I remove it for PI]

Is it something about parameterization I am missing ? Or what ? I am at a loss, thank to anybody who can give me a hint on how to get these errors out.

Thanks,
Ed

make sure you emf project has Xtext nature (rightclick, configure, Convert to Xtext project)
and that it is added to the yourdsl project as dependency.

if that one does not help: please create and share a minimal reproducible example

It is.

How do I check that ?

I can past Xtext example and show it works ;)
More seriously, I'll work on that but it aint easy to do... A small version of that same Ecore worked perfectly. When I had thos inheritance leaves, the thing explodes.

The solution to this issue was to use "platform" imports:
i

import "platform:/path/to/yourdsl.ecore"
import "platform:/path/to/yourdsl.ecore#//package1" as package1
import "platform:/path/to/yourdsl.ecore#//package2" as package2

instead of URIs:

import "http://yourdsl.ecore"  
import "http://yourdsl.ecore#//package1" as package1
import "http://yourdsl.ecore#//package2" as package2

There are some warnings, but once the plugin is on, it's all fine.

Asking for a repro is often a lazy answer.

your namespaces look wired.
maybe that is the problem
maybe its also a problem with nested packages
