Hello,

I've made a DSL with XText and XTend wich works. Now I want to use it in an standalone Eclipse. First I tryed to export my DSL with "Deployable plug-ins and fragments". First attemd faild, but if I check "use class files compiled in the workspace"like said in the link: http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/m/1051984/ and it works.
Now I want to use an Update-Site with features like it's shown here: www.roperia.com/article/363/building-xtext-plugins-with-maven-and-tycho-a-step-by-step-guide
After I build the site I get the same error as with exporting and not checking the "use class files compiled in the workspace".

So my Question is, how do I tell the Update-Site-Projekt or the used Feature to "use class files compiled in the workspace" ?

Thanks for any Help

You may want to use the Xtext Buckminster wizard to create the update
site, which works out of the box. I wrote a tutorial about that

hope this helps
