Hi all ,

I want to generate meta model from the grammar .Lookup element inheritance from the Field Element ,and Field element is inheritance from Content Unit .I have a ambiguity problem Sad

My grammar :

[size=4][color=red]ContentUnit returns C[/size]ontentUnit:[/color]
	ContentModel | WebApplication | SiteCollection | Web | List | SiteField | ContentType | [color=red][colo[/color]r=firebrick]Field[/color];

ContentModel returns ContentModel:
	'ContentModel'
	name=ID
	'{'
	'guID' '=' guID=STRING
	('description' '=' description=STRING)?
	ownedWebApplication=WebApplication
	'}';

WebApplication returns WebApplication:
	'WebApplication'
	name=ID
	'{'
	'guID' '=' guID=STRING
	('description' '=' description=STRING)?
	ownedSiteColection+=SiteCollection (ownedSiteColection+=SiteCollection)*
	'}';

SiteCollection returns SiteCollection:
	'SiteCollection'
	name=ID

	(ownedList+=List (ownedList+=List)*)?
	(ownedWeb+=Web (ownedWeb+=Web)*)?
	(ownedSiteField+=SiteField (ownedSiteField+=SiteField)*)?
	'}';

List returns List:
	'List'
	name=ID
	'{'
	'guID' '=' guID=STRING
	'type' '=' type=ListType
	('description' '=' description=STRING)?
	(ownedListField+=ListField (ownedListField+=ListField)*)?
	(ownedListContentType+=ListContentType (ownedListContentType+=ListContentType)*)?
	'}';

enum ListType returns ListType:
	Library | Custom | Discussion | Calendar | Task;

SiteField returns SiteField:
	SiteField_Impl | ListField | LookUp ;

ListField returns ListField:
	ListField_Impl | LookUp ;

ContentType returns ContentType:
	ListContentType | SiteContentType;

[size=4][color=red]Field ret[/size]urns Field:[/color]
	LookUp ;

SiteField_Impl returns SiteField:
	'SiteField'
	name=ID
	'{'
	'guID' '=' guID=STRING
	('description' '=' description=STRING)?
	'}';

ListField_Impl returns ListField:
	'ListField'

	('parent' '=' parent=[SiteContentType|STRING])?
	('field' '=' '(' field+=[ListField|STRING] (field+=[ListField|STRING])* ')')?
	'}';

SiteContentType returns SiteContentType:
	'SiteContentType'
	name=ID
	'{'
	'guID' '=' guID=STRING
	('description' '=' description=STRING)?
	('group' '=' group=STRING)?
	('parentContentType' '=' parentContentType=[ContentType|STRING])?
	('field' '=' '(' field+=[SiteField|STRING] (field+=[SiteField|STRING])* ')')?
	'}';

enum Releationship returns Releationship:
	Association | Composition;

[size=4][size=3][color=red]LookUp retu[/size]rns LookUp:[/color][/size]
	'LookUp'
	name=ID
	'{'
	('guID' '=' guID=STRING)
	(required?='required')?

Hi,

the problem is clear: Everything can be a Lookup.

ContentUnit returns ContentUnit:
ContentModel | WebApplication | SiteCollection | Web | List | SiteField | ContentType | Field;

SiteField returns SiteField:
SiteField_Impl | ListField | LookUp ;

ListField returns ListField:
ListField_Impl | LookUp ;

ContentType returns ContentType:
ListContentType | SiteContentType;

Field returns Field:
LookUp ;

Hi Christian ,

Thank you for your help,did not realize this problem .my problem is solved now .

I have one question about this grammar :existing field relation in the SiteContentType and ListContentType.this field relations (terminal rule) shows unique false in the generated meta model,but I will use this meta model in the GMF tool.GMF tool wants to "unique =true" .How can I change this property from the grammar or I can customize it from the Xtext.

ListContentType returns ListContentType:
	'ListContentType'
	name=ID
	'{'
	'guID' '=' guID=STRING
	('description' '=' description=STRING)?
	('group' '=' group=STRING)?
	('parentContentType' '=' parentContentType=[ContentType|STRING])?
	('parent' '=' parent=[SiteContentType|STRING])?
	('field' '=' '(' field+=[ListField|STRING] (field+=[ListField|STRING])* ')')?
	'}';

SiteContentType returns SiteContentType:
	'SiteContentType'
	name=ID
	'{'
	'guID' '=' guID=STRING
	('description' '=' description=STRING)?
	('group' '=' group=STRING)?
	('parentContentType' '=' parentContentType=[ContentType|STRING])?
	('field' '=' '(' field+=[SiteField|STRING] (field+=[SiteField|STRING])* ')')?
	'}';



Thank you & Best regards

no i mean you create the metamodel on your own in a separate project.

Hi ,

okey but I must use metamodel in the same xtext project because of synchronization with GMF. so xtext must create metamodel which gmf can accept.

And i dont understand how can i change
org.eclipse.xtext.xtext.ecoreInference.IXtext2EcorePostProcessor.

can u give me more information about this ?

Regards

It lets you change the ecore generated by xtext
