Hi All,
Below is a part of my grammar in which i am getting some error.


Instance:
'STRUCT' name=ID';'
;

Assignment returns Parameter:
name=AssignmentName '=' defaultValue=INT ';'
;


// The Parameter rule, is actually part of an existing ecore model, which is defined as
//name - EString
//defaultValue - INT

AssignmentName returns EString :
var=[Instance]'.'param=ID

// i need something like [Instance].[Parameter] and the concatenated thing to go to name, but if use
//var=[Instance]'.'param=[Parameter], it doesnt work, so i have put in a validator to check it,
is there any direct way?

;

I have two queries:

1) is stated above
2)I am getting an error as
"Cannot find compatible feature name in sealed EClass Parameter
from imported package http.........:
The existing feature 'name' has an incompatible type 'EString'
[java.lang.String]. The expected type is 'EString'."

I am confused as to why this message is, even though the message says both are EString.

I think i am missing something. Can anyone please help?

Thanks in Advance,
Rohit

Hi,

this makes no sense to me a EString is for datatypes/terminals only and not for EObjects
from your post i am not quite sure what you actually want to do.

Maybe you want todo something like

Assignment:
param=[Parameter|PName] '=' defaultValue=INT ';'
;

PName: ID "." ID;

with propery naming or adoptions to scoping/nameing it will work out of the box

(giving the params the name <instancename>.<paramname>
