IJvmModelAssociations across models [message #1758755]

I have two linked grammars that complement each other.
I can use the normal scoping context to link to a model from the other grammar just fine.
Example Model DSL:

Model
     prop1  : Integer
     prop2 :  Model2
  
Model2
   prop1 
   prop2

When referring to a Model from my second DSL, I can find the properties just fine. However, when it refers to a property of model2, I need to match it to the right EObject to go fetch the properties.

In the Model DSL, I use

IJvmModelAssociations.getSourceElements(theJVMTypeForModel2)

In the context of the Model DSL, this works properly. But it seems to me like the IJvmModelAssociations is bound to the associations for a specific DSL...

Any way I can do it clean without doing some weird global variable somewhere ?

Last point. It's normal that I have to go through the JVM type at that point, because that type of reference is permitted, it will just (rightly so) not return any properties.

Thanks

OK, The problem was not related to the injected IJvmModelAssociations.
I was using the wrong type reference cast in that specific instance.

I would have deleted the post, but it's not available as an option.

Thanks

Update on the issue. My fix worked only if I managed to get a reference to the IJvmModelAssociations injected in the ModelDsl scopes provider... So I'm back to square one.
My program works because of the way I've statically referenced it, but it doesn't look like it's the right way to do it.
So your suggestions are still welcome

p.s. if you wantr to0 access components/injector of other dsls you can use IResourceServiceProvider.Registry.INSTANCE.getResourceServiceProvider(uriOfAFileOfTheOtherDsl).get(XXXX.class);

I wanted to use the JvmModelAssociations of one model in the scoping engine of another one. With your suggestion I was able to make it clean with

@Inject IResourceServiceProvider.Registry registry

and use it with:

val associations = registry.getResourceServiceProvider(type.eResource.URI).get(IJvmModelAssociations)

It works. Thanks for the new tip.
