Combining JvmModelInferrer with IGenerator [message #928656]

Hello,

my question is, how you would combine the "old" IGenerator approach with the new JvmModelInferrer approach?

I did it with a bad hack already, but I would like to know the official way to do it.

Use case:
I model web pages, generate JSF controller classes and would like also to generate XML descriptors.

Thank you!

Hi the inferred model is already used by the jvmmodelgenerator which
is an igenerator

Hello Christian,

so you mean, I have to override the "generate" method and call the second generator manually before or after the super() call?
In this case I will have also to take care myself of the injections within the second generator. Is it really the official way to do this
or I just miss something?

Thank you!

Best Regards,
Boris

Hi,

i dont get your problem. subclass the jvmmodelgenerator. override org.eclipse.xtext.xbase.compiler.JvmModelGenerator.doGenerate(Resource, IFileSystemAccess)
or dispatch into org.eclipse.xtext.xbase.compiler.JvmModelGenerator.internalDoGenerate(EObject, IFileSystemAccess)
and simply bind it.

thats all. there is nothing special. so "official way" since it is trivial that none even thinks of one

and why take care of injections? there is nothing different to other injections

Hello Christian,

I get your point. It's indeed very easy. Smile

A tiny problem, I still have, is the

@SuppressWarnings("restriction")

I forced to add. Actually, there are many places where I need this thing. Every time I do it, I think, there must be some other way to do, what I'm trying to do.

What do you think about restrictions? (and about restrictions in the special case?)

Thank you!

Regards,
Boris
