Hi,

i am a beginner in xtext. I am trying to create a grammar for my DSL.

Here is an example:

GROUP a
{
	INTEGER a1 DEFAULT 1
}
GROUP b IF a.a1 = 1
{
	INTEGER b1 DEFAULT 1
}
GROUP b IF a.a1 = 2
{
	INTEGER b2 DEFAULT 1
}


I created the following grammar:
grammar org.xtext.example.config.MyConfig with org.eclipse.xtext.common.Terminals

generate myConfig "http://www.xtext.org/example/config/MyConfig"

Model:
	elements+=AbstractElements*;

AbstractElements:
	Parameter | Group;

Group:
	'GROUP' name=ID ('IF' (condition+=Condition)* )?
	'{'
		(parameters+=Parameter)*
	'}';

Parameter:
	'INTEGER'  name=ID 'DEFAULT' default=INT;

Condition:
	EquationCondition;

EquationCondition:
	group=[Group|ID]'.'parameter=[Parameter|ID] '=' value=INT;


I get the following validation error: " Duplicate Abstract Elements 'b' " In my case, this is not right, because the two groups have a different condition ! how could i prevent the validation error ?

Could I change the grammar to prevent the duplicate entries error ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

you can disable duplicate name checks for your grammar by removing

composedCheck = "org.eclipse.xtext.validation.NamesAreUniqueValidator"


from your languages workflow

Ok, thanks, now i have no errors anymore !

Could you think of a solution where I deactivate or filter the duplicate names check only for these conditional groups, because apart from that exception, the duplicate names check would really help

Hi,

I could imagine that the following works. Extend the NamesAreUniqueValidator overriding doCheckUniqueNames. You basically copy the method body but remove from descriptions those whose type is the one you do not want to be checked before passing them on to the helper.

Alternatively bind your own implementation of NamesAreUniqueValidationHelper and make that one ignore the objects you want to be ignored.
