Hi,

I already have a interpreter which is written in C++.

But what I want is syntax-highlighting, code-completion and running info from interpreter.

Is possibile to integrate already existed interpreter with Xtext.

I have also done the grammar part with Xtext, but which is only for syntax-highlighting

Thanks

Xtext does not generate an interpreter, so you are free to do what you
want to evaluate/run something written in your language.

Thanks for your reply, Henrik.

But what I want is call the interpreter to execute input text from generated editor.

Until now I only can realize this function by using "external Tools".

That has nothing to do with Xtext per-se.

I implemented this for Eclipse B3 language where I added "run file" by
simply adding an action to the editors context menu (and to to a
resource of "mydsl" type).
