cross reference in different files [message #1744247]

Hello all,

I have three different grammars and i would like to cross-reference hierarchically.
I will give an example and part of the rules of those grammars to illustrate my problem.

grammar A (iface):

InEvent:
type = String name = ID
;

grammar B (impl):

EventAction:
name = ([iface::InEvent | FQN])
;

grammar C:
Transition:
(input=[impl::EventAction | FQN] '=>' state = [StateDeclaration] ) ;

Grammar B is able to see the InEvents from grammar A, referring to the name ID. I want make a cross reference to this name in grammar C. However, it is not visible due to the fact that it is not ID but it is a cross reference to grammar A (at least this is what i discovered). So, Grammar C can see elements defined in Grammar B when these elements are of ID type.
Then, i thought that a solution could be to update the scope provider. But i am facing the problem that I have to access the rootElement of another file. Does anyone know how can i do that?
my current scope provider is as follows:

override getScope(EObject context, EReference reference)
{
if (context instanceof Transition)
{
if (reference.name == "input")
{
val rootElement = EcoreUtil2.getRootContainer(context)
val importFiles = EcoreUtil2.getAllContentsOfType(rootElement, Import)
println(importFiles );

val candidates = EcoreUtil2.getAllContentsOfType(rootElement, EventAction)
return Scopes.scopeFor(candidates)
}
}
return super.getScope(context, reference);
}

I am able to find the eObjects with the import URIs, but i do not know if this is the right way to proceed.

Thank you in advance.

Names have to be attributes by default.
You can use a custom iqualifiednameprovider together with nodemodelutils
To build a name of the cross references text

Thank you for your reply. I have tried your approach. More specifically, i have implemented the qualifiedname provider in grammar B as following:

override def QualifiedName getFullyQualifiedName(EObject ele) {
if (ele instanceof EventAction) {
val List<INode> nodes = NodeModelUtils.findNodesForFeature(ele, ImplementationPackage.Literals.EVENT_ACTION__NAME);
if (nodes.size()>0)
{
return QualifiedName.create(NodeModelUtils.getTokenText(nodes.get(0)));
}
} else {
return super.getFullyQualifiedName(ele);
}
}

Then i made a simple scope in grammar C.
def scope_InputEvent_name(InputEvent t, EReference ref)
{
//return Scopes.scopeFor(t.eCrossReferences)
val scope = delegateGetScope(t, ref);
println("======");
for (el: scope.allElements) {
println(el.name);
}
return delegateGetScope(t, ref);
}

For debugging purposes i have the println which correctly prints the name references :
======
UI.SetResultScreen
UI.Click_Start
UI.Click_Stop
UI.Click_Ok
UI.Click_Cancel
UI.Click_Yes
UI.Click_No

In the Eclipse runtime workspace the ctrl+space works and proposes with the correct reference name options, as you can see in the attached picture. The quickfix also proposes the same references. However, when i select one of the options, i get the error: "Couldn't resolve reference to EventAction 'UI.Click_Cancel' ".

I suspect that there is an issue with namespaces, but i am not sure. The namespaces from the individual grammars are:
A -> UI
B -> Impl
C -> BT.BeepImpl

I am providing you few screenshots from the debug mode, that may help you to locate my error. Am i missing something here? Except the qualifiednameprovider at grammar B should i make any amendment in Grammar C, for instance update the local scope provider? I am using xtext 2.9.2 in case that helps you to find the root of my problem. Thank you in advance.

How does the complete scopeprovider class look like? Does it inherit from abstractdeckarativescopeprovider ?
And how does the grammar look like?

The scope method you posted and the grammar you posted don't match

The scope provider class extends the AbstractDeclarativeScopeProvider. These are the most interesting parts of the two grammars. (The grammars and the scopeprovider are attached as xtext documents.)

Grammar B:

ImlpModel:
'Implementation' name = ID '{'
((('Variables' '{' vars += Var+ '}') ) |
(('Event_Action' eventActions += EventAction))|
(('Check_Action' checkActions += CheckAction))|
(('PreAction' preaction += PreAction)))*
'}'
;

Import:
'import' importURI = STRING
;

//Action has a name and arguments
EventAction:
name = ([iface::InEvent | FQN]) ("("((args += Var)? ("," args += Var)*) ")")? (":" (type = [tTypes::SimpleTypeDecl]))?
"{" actions = (SeqAction|BranchAction) "}"

;

CheckAction:
name = ([iface::OutEvent | FQN]) ("("((args += Var)? ("," args += Var)*) ")")? (":" (type = [tTypes::SimpleTypeDecl]))?
"{" actions = (SeqAction|BranchAction) "}"

;

PreAction:
name = ID ("("((args += Var)? ("," args += Var)*) ")")? (":" (type = [tTypes::SimpleTypeDecl]))?
"{" actions = (SeqAction|BranchAction) "}"

Where iface is the reference to grammar A

Grammar C:

Transition:
(
(input=InputEvent('(' varVal += VariableValue+ ')')?
(
((preaction+=Preactions)? '=>' state=[StateDeclaration])
)
|
(
'=>' defaultState=("PreviousState" | "CurrentState" | "TerminalState")
)
)
|
("Default" "=>"
(
(state=[StateDeclaration])
|
(defaultState=("PreviousState" | "CurrentState" | "TerminalState"))
)
)
)
('{'
(('in' inEvents += InputEvent)|('out' outEvents += InputEvent))+
'}'
)?
;

Preactions:
'::' pa = [impl::PreAction | FQN]
('('(args += VariableValue) (',' args += VariableValue)*')')?
;

VariableValue:
varVal = (ExpressionConstantInt|ExpressionConstantBool|ExpressionConstantString | ExpressionConstantReal | ExpressionAny)
;

InputEvent:
name = [impl::EventAction | FQN]
;

Does the name already contain a dot on dsl b side? If yes you should use iqualifiednameconverter to create the name. Else a name inside a segment may contain the dot which is not allowed

Yes it contains a dot of the namespace UI. So the provided qualified name is UI.Click_ok. But where should i use the iqualifiednameconverter? Shall i use it inside the extended qualifiednameprovider? Could you give me an example?

Yes

@Inject Xxx xxx;

Thank you a lot for your help. It finally works! I am posting the qualifiednameprovider in case that someone faces the same problem in the future.

public class ImplementationQualifiedNameProvider extends DefaultDeclarativeQualifiedNameProvider {

@Inject
private IQualifiedNameConverter converter = new IQualifiedNameConverter.DefaultImpl();

override def QualifiedName getFullyQualifiedName(EObject ele) { // Copy this to the .impl DSL
if (ele instanceof EventAction) {
val List<INode> nodes = NodeModelUtils.findNodesForFeature(ele, ImplementationPackage.Literals.EVENT_ACTION__NAME);
if (nodes.size()>0)
{
val qn = QualifiedName.create(NodeModelUtils.getTokenText(nodes.get(0)))

return converter.toQualifiedName(qn.toString)
}
} else {
return super.getFullyQualifiedName(ele);
}
}
}
