Every time I've tried to install XCore, both on Indigo and now Juno, I have the following issue:
If I install XCore first, it works.
If I then install XText/XPand, nothing works -- the editors aren't recognized, etc...
If I uninstall XText/Xpand and then reinstall XCore, everything works again
Nartually, since the Score projects actually require Xtext, this presents a problem.
Also, I'm wondering if XCore is suppossed to implement the XTend Template (''') syntax. I can't get it to work, but I was thining that might be due to the issue above..
thanks!
Miles

Xcore requires Xtext...

You've tried installing Xtext and Xpand first. I don't see how order
affects anything...

No, that's not an Xbase thing.

It's actually an Xbase dependency which is needed if you have any
behavior specified in your model (derived features, operations, or data
conversion).

Other than the generated method bodies, if any.

That's possible in principle, if you don't make use of Xbase in your
Xcore model.

We'll have to improve the design to exceed expectations.
