Hi guys!

May i know how do i configure my mwe2 workflow to generate the project wizard automatically for me for xtext 2.9.2? I realized that the workflow changed from the old Xtext version and i did not know how exactly should I configure the wizard fragments for the latest Xtext version.

And previously when i try to create my DSL project using the custom project wizard, it was found in the "Xtext" folder which looks like this:

I was hoping to get a project wizard structure like this that has its own individual folder which is not under Xtext folder:

- Xtext
-- Xtext Project

- UPF Editor 
-- UPF Editor file
-- UPF Editor project

Is there any way to achieve something like that in xtext project?
Any help is appreciated greatly!

Thanks

you may follow https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=490796.

did you try to use as workaround

fragment = org.eclipse.xtext.generator.adapter.FragmentAdapter {
fragment = org.eclipse.xtext.ui.generator.projectWizard.SimpleProjectWizardFragment {} //from .... xtext.generator
}

Sorry Christian, but that link is broken.

But i successfully generated the project wizard by using:
fragment = ui.projectWizard.SimpleProjectWizardFragment2{
generate = true
}

Do you have any idea on the 2nd question of my first post?

Thanks

well it seems to be the . https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=490796

have a look the the generated plugin.xml / plugin.xml_gen (you may have to merge the second to the first) - i am sure it puts the wizard to a certain category

As Christian said, this is now available, but in Xtext 2.10 nightly.

The documentation has also been updated, you can see the diff here:

https://github.com/eclipse/xtext/pull/989/files

The project wizard will be by default in the "Xtext" category as it also
used to be in the past.

cheers
Lorenzo

Thanks Christian and Lorenzo for the help.
I defined my own category and changed the default "Xtext" category to my custom category in plugin.xml and it works perfectly.

Is there any default icon that i can set to the project wizard?

Thanks
