Error-markers for write-protected files [message #665164]

It seems xtext 1.0.2 doesn't create error-markers for write protected (read only) files. (Highlighting and references though are working)
Is there a way to enable this?

Hi Johannes,

there is no way to override this in a language dependent way. The marker
handling is done by the builder which works for all languages.
See org.eclipse.xtext.builder.builderState.MarkerUpdaterImpl.
Why do you need to validate files that are readonly? Does your VCS mark
them as such?

Sebastian

yes we're using Rational Synergy for SCM - and files that are not checked out (means sth. like marked as 'in-work' by the developer) are read-only.

I've customized my implementation of the marker update.
And bound it in my UIModule with

    public Class<? extends org.eclipse.xtext.builder.builderState.IMarkerUpdater> bindIMarkerUpdater() {
        return InputFileMarkerUpdater.class;
    }

But it doesn't get called??

Hi Johannes,

please file a ticket and attach the use case there.
You could replace the builder module and substitute the MarkerUpdater
with an own implementation that does not ignore read only files. There
is an extension point that allows to enhance the guice module that is
used to instantiate the central components of Xtext. However, it may
only be used once in an Eclipse environment. That is, no other installed
language would be allowed to replace this module. Would that be feasable
for you?

Regards,
Sebastian

We're having the same problem with Perforce, which also marks files as read-only unless they are checked out.

Hi Sebastian,

I also have currently to deal with a custom-specific VCS, which marks files read-only. And unfortunately it is not used in the development environment, but rather in a productive tool for a specific domain. This blocks all validation for the affected files, so much important for the customer.

Although the workaround with overriding the shared module works perfectly, there is still much code to duplicate in a custom read-only permissive MarkerUpdater. Are there any strong objections against making the standard MarkerUpdaterImpl able to work with read-only files? Of course one could consider some extension mechanism to this handling on a per language basis. But I just so far don't see, why we could not have markers generated for all files, whereas during the quick fix the user would have to decide, if the write protection should be removed from a specific file. Have there been any original idea why not to proceed so?

Thanks for your reply in advance!
