Hi everyone,

Does anyone know how to make imports recursive / transitive using xtext ?
And first of all : is that even possible ?

Thank you. Razz

Hi,

it does not work out of the box. You have to implement this functionality yourself. Do you work with name space imports (in which case transitive imports do not make sense to me) or URI imports?

In the second case, the corresponding base class to extend has a handy method for providing implicit imports.

Hello,

As you assumed, I work with imported URIs.

Which is the class you are talking about ?

I don't get why the implicits import will help me. Should I define some kind of implicit imports depending on the file ? I suppose I could browse the model recursively and make the appropriate scope.

Thank's for your answer.

Hi,

sorry my last answer was technically incorrect. The method for implicit imports exists for name space imports. For URI-imporst you adapt ImportUriGlobalScopeProvider#getImportedUris.

And yes, you would recursively go through the imported models in order to collect all imports.
