Hi

I'm currently using Xtext 2.8 from the nightly update site, in a
language that uses Xbase

this morning I've updated it and using 2.8.0.v201502220955

when running the mwe2 workflow I'm getting many errors of the shape

928 [main] ERROR ipse.xtext.generator.LanguageConfig -
[TransformationDiagnostic: null:123 Cannot add supertype 'XExpression'
to sealed type 'OrExpression'.

TransformationDiagnostic: null:123 Cannot add supertype 'XExpression' to
sealed type 'OrExpression'. (ErrorCode: CannotCreateTypeInSealedMetamodel)

where OrExpression is defined in a rule as follows

PremiseExpression returns xbase::XExpression:
TerminalPremiseExpression
=>({OrExpression.branches+=current} ...
;

has anything changed in the way rules and inheritance relations must be
specified, or is it just a bug in this version?

thanks in advance
Lorenzo

Hi

I've certainly noticed changes in this area, but I'm never sure what the
correct policy is for multi-layer grammars; I've changed a few times
since Xtext 2.3 when it was simple; you could import
platform:/resource/... and everything worked nicely.

With MWE2 2.8, the declarations seem more sensible. You must now
registerEcoreFile for each platform:/resource/... and it all works.

e.g.

Workflow {
bean = StandaloneSetup {
platformUri = "${QVTcoreRuntimeProject}/.."
scanClassPath = true
registerEcoreFile =
"platform:/resource/org.eclipse.ocl.pivot/model/Pivot.ecore"
registerEcoreFile =
"platform:/resource/org.eclipse.qvtd.pivot.qvtbase/model/QVTbase.ecore"
registerEcoreFile =
"platform:/resource/org.eclipse.qvtd.pivot.qvtcorebase/model/QVTcoreBase.ecore"
registerEcoreFile =
"platform:/resource/org.eclipse.qvtd.pivot.qvtcore/model/QVTcore.ecore"
registerEcoreFile =
"platform:/resource/org.eclipse.ocl.xtext.base/model/BaseCS.ecore"
registerEcoreFile =
"platform:/resource/org.eclipse.ocl.xtext.essentialocl/model/EssentialOCLCS.ecore"
registerEcoreFile =
"platform:/resource/org.eclipse.qvtd.xtext.qvtcorebase/model/QVTcoreBaseCS.ecore"
registerEcoreFile =
"platform:/resource/org.eclipse.qvtd.xtext.qvtcore/model/QVTcoreCS.ecore"
registerGenModelFile =
"platform:/resource/org.eclipse.qvtd.xtext.qvtcore/model/QVTcoreCS.genmodel"
}

however my multi-editor MWE2 scripts don't work anymore: e.g.

Workflow {
component = @GenerateQVTcoreBaseEditor {}
component = @GenerateQVTcoreEditor {}
component = @GenerateQVTimperativeEditor {}
component = @GenerateQVTrelationEditor {}
}

Something has incorrectly loaded http:/... instead of, or as well as,
platform:/resource and so if you have a better platform:/resource than
http:/... you get the cannot-add-feature diagnostic.

Xtext 2.8 has also gone backwards. It too seems determined to use the
referenced http:/... intermittently rather than the required
platform:/resource, so somehow the magic model index that burns cycles
to support the requirement to reference the wrong model doesn't correct
the wrong reference. I now ignore Xtext editor errors that I don't believe.

Bring back Xtext 2.3; you import what you actually want and no clever
index is needed to re-interpret what you import. A system that requires
an erroneous declaration seems doomed to fail.

Regards

This problem is present also in

2.8.0.v201502230836

taken from latest update site

It wasn't there in version 2.8.0.v201502181731 though I cannot revert to
that version since it disappeared from the update sites.

cheers
Lorenzo

I think I solved the problem; I forgot to mention that I'm using a
manually maintained ecore model.

The changes necessary to make the workflow work can be seen in this commit:

https://github.com/LorenzoBettini/xsemantics/commit/866f7b83d76bc5a8a5866969ae07cc235cc530f6

The solution seems to be to use the same resource set throughout the
workflow...

but I'd like to know whether this is the right solution, or whether the
original problem is due to a bug...

thanks in advance
Lorenzo

Hi

Xtext has reverted some incompatible changes introduced at M4. My
observations below on changes that may be necessary to MWE2 scripts are
no longer applicable. I have been able to revert my scripts to as they were.
