Xtext parser programmatically for XMI generation [message #1743247] Tue, 13 September 2016 14:17 Go to next message

Hi all,

I am using Xtext as a parser to transform an input file with the extension .mydsl to a .xmi file.
I implemented my grammar and I can use it by opening an Eclipse Application and creating a file with the extension .mydsl. The extension is recognized and I can paste my input file into this file.
Then, I open this file with Sample Reflective Ecore Model Editor and finally I realise a "save as" to transform it in .xmi file.

It is quite laborious then I would like to automate this transformation. I created a java application (IHM) and I tried this code from https://wiki.eclipse.org/Xtext/FAQ#How_do_I_load_my_model_in_a_standalone_Java_application.C2.A0.3F

new org.eclipse.emf.mwe.utils.StandaloneSetup().setPlatformUri("../");
 Injector injector = new MyDslStandaloneSetup().createInjectorAndDoEMFRegistration();
 XtextResourceSet resourceSet = injector.getInstance(XtextResourceSet.class);
 resourceSet.addLoadOption(XtextResource.OPTION_RESOLVE_ALL, Boolean.TRUE);
 Resource resource = resourceSet.createResource(URI.createURI("dummy:/example.mydsl"));
 InputStream in = new ByteArrayInputStream("type foo type bar".getBytes());
 resource.load(in, resourceSet.getLoadOptions());
 Model model = (Model) resource.getContents().get(0);


It is not working.
Do I have to save the resource as xmi?

Could you help me please?
Thanks,

Jean

And why do you want to the the xmi transformation at all?

the following reads the model for me as expected:

public class Main {
	
	public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
		 Injector injector = new MyDslStandaloneSetup().createInjectorAndDoEMFRegistration();
		 XtextResourceSet resourceSet = injector.getInstance(XtextResourceSet.class);
		 Resource resource = resourceSet.createResource(URI.createURI("dummy:/example.mydsl"));
		 InputStream in = new ByteArrayInputStream("Hello A! Hello B!".getBytes());
		 resource.load(in, resourceSet.getLoadOptions());
		 Model model = (Model) resource.getContents().get(0);
		 System.out.println(model);
	}

}

Hi Christian,

Thank you for your answers.

Firstly, I am going to give you more information about my project.
My objective is to convert a file written according to mydsl to a HTML file or Matlab file.
For the moment, I am doing it in two time:
- I already have the transformation from XMI file to HTML or Matlab. It is implemented with acceleo. I insert it on my HMI (java application), it is working.
- Then I have to implement a transformation from my DSL file to XMI. As I said previously, I did it with Xtext, it works manually but I have some difficulties to insert it in my HMI.

Please find below my HMI:
http://www.zimagez.com/miniature/dsltransformation.png

In the future, I will hide the step of the XMI generation.

Now about my issue:
I tried your code, I can't make it working.
Please find below the error log

the trace looks like you call this code from eclipse (osgi environment). that is a bad idea.
the thing is called standalonesetup for a reason. you may have a look at

http://koehnlein.blogspot.de/2012/11/xtext-tip-how-do-i-get-guice-injector.html

btw why dont you simply load the xtext file in acceleo

Ok, thanks Christian.

I will try to find a solution from the link that you send me.

And I am also looking at include Xtext into acceleo as you advise me, I found old post in the forum:
