switchable OutputConfiguration [message #857067]

Hello,

I would like to do following:
- generate class infrastructure (and regenerate it every time I change anything in my model)
- generate implementation classes for infrastructure (They should be generated only once and never more touched by generator... They would basically inherit abstract classes and user could override necessary methods there.)
I know, that I can set both behaviours using IOutputConfiguration. The question is, if and how is possible to generate some files using one configuration and other files using another configuration.
Lets assume I use generator described here: http://www.eclipse.org/Xtext/documentation/2_1_0/040-first-code-generator.php

Thank you & Best regards,
Michal

Hi Michal,

please have a look at
org.eclipse.xtext.generator.OutputConfigurationProvider. It would be
your job to bind a subTyp of this class and define more
OutputConfigurations. After that you could take the
org.eclipse.xtext.generator.IFileSystemAccess.generateFile(String,
String, CharSequence) to point out what outputconfiguration should be used.

Cheers,
Holger
