Quick fixes customization [message #1759345]

Hi all,

I have a Sirius representation over a DSL generated by EMF, and when I validate my model some errors generated by the Ecore show up (for example "name must be set"). However, none of these errors have quick fixes. How can I define/customize them?

Thank you for your time and help,
Sara

Hi, I think the validation error you got comes from your metamodel (the property 'name' is set to mandatory in your Ecore model). Given that it is a best guess, could you please provide an example to reproduce such validation error?
To implement quick fixes, you'd have to write some validations using EVL, and example can be found in [1].

Cheers,
William

Yes, the validation error comes from the metamodel. Since those validations are already "checked" (because they are mandatory) by the metamodel I was trying to find a way to add quick fixes to them, because if I use EVL I will have to write all those validations again... Right? And then add quick fixes.

Thank you for your help,
Sara

Hi Sara,

This is correct - I'm not aware of a way to add fixes for built-in constraints.

Cheers,
Dimitris
