Hello

I have couple of questions regarding injection mechanizm in XText.
I would like to use Dependency Injection in process of code generation.
So I add in MyDslRuntimeModule the following code
public class MyDSLRuntimeModule extends AbstractMyDSLRuntimeModule {
	
	
	public void configureMyService(Binder binder) {
		binder.bind(IService.class).annotatedWith(Names.named("ServiceName").to(ServiceImpl.class);
	}
	
}



and I would like to use the following code in client class

class a_client_class {
    @Inject
    @Named("ServiceName")
    private IService service_provider;

   public void method() {
        this.service_provider.do_something();
    }
}


I understood that in clinet class should know about injection functionality that generated by XText. I don't know how to explain to client class about this mechanizm. This is my first question.

My second question is Using generated by XText injection modules for custom class is good idea or not?

May be I schould create my owner Injector and use itfor my private purposes.

Could you please clarify this problem?

Thanks in advance
Alex

yes you can use this for your own code as well.

to get this running you have to create the client class via @Inject or via Injector i = ....; i.getInstance(Client.class)

Thanks for answer on the first question.


but about the second question

As I understand correctly XText infrastructure the XText injection feature is created in class MyDSLStandaloneSetup that use his parent for main work.

From other hand the way of getting injector that created by XText is not clear
I see method createInjectorAndDoEMFRegistration in parent class of MyDSLStandalonesetup, but this class creating Injector from scratch, i think this is long procedure. Also I see in test project a class like MyDSLInjectorProvider.

I can create class like this in production project, I don't know how guarantee a calling of this method on apllication startup

Hi i dont get that. Bindings are done in the modules. Thus you can either
add your bindings to the existing modules or you need to use your own
module in your standalone setup (And/or activator)

Hallo Christian,

Thank you for support. Could you clarify my last question. I need to get instance of Injector object in Generator implementaion. Plugin with suffix ui(I mean org.xtext.example.ui) has activator that generated by XText and in this plugin I can easy get instance of Injector using something like Activator.getInstance().getInjector.
But plugin like org.xtext.example does not has generated activator. It has Standalone setup class. But user schould not use this class inside Eclipse.

I understand that I can use @Inject annotation and inject field in class, but sometimes more convinient get instnces of set of objects of an object via createInstance method. For example I have interface IService and several implemantations of this service. I need to get a few implemantations of this service during code genaration process.
So is there way to get instance of Injector in Generator implementation

Thanks
Alex

Thank you support.

I resolved my problem. Also I found out that RuntimeModule has root interface Module, not abstract class AbstractModule. In this case we cannot use install method and AssistgedInjection. It is pity
