Hi all,

I have an own implementation of ResourceDescriptionManager.
Since I migrated to xtext 2.0.0 one method is missing:
Iterable<IEObjectDescription> result = transform(contents, new Function<EObject, IEObjectDescription>() {
public IEObjectDescription apply(EObject from) {
EObjectDescription.create(from., element)
return createIEObjectDescription(from);
}
});

the createIEObjectDescription(...) is not found any more.

What can I use instead?

Thanks for your help

Best regards
Markus

Hi,

EObjectDescription.create(name, element) gets you an IEObjectDescription
so what do you want to do more?

Hi

Thank you for your reply,

yes, I saw, but what shall I put in as parameter name (FQN, Simple name....). Is this a functional parameter which has impact to feature or is this just informational.

Parameter eobject is clear.

Thanks for your help
Regards
Markus

Hi,

this is the name under which the object is put to the index and thus can be referenced, so of course it is not informal. so use the name you want to reference the stuff with.
