Goodmorning.

How can I show my custom EMF validation results on Eclipse Problems View?

I try with an extension on org.eclipse.emf.validation.validationListener and a class which implements IValidationListener but the method validationOccurred is never called.

NOTE that I use eOperation inside model classes for validate them.

Thnaks in advance.

Maybe someone will answer questions about the extended validation
framework, or you could have a look at how to make such constraints part
of your core model:

http://help.eclipse.org/juno/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.emf.doc/references/overview/EMF.Validation.html

Note that EMF 2.9 (the Kepler version) supports live validation of
instinct model constraints

So you suggest me to convert my invariants in constraints?

Isn't there a way to show invariant results on problem view?

As the documentation suggests, an invariant operation (an EOperation
with the documented signature) acts as a constraint.

So, why if I try to call Diagnostician.INSTANCE.validate(EObject) I receive all validation problems but they are not visible from problems view?

Maybe I have to add something in plugin for my invariants?

Tommaso,

The new decorator approach does rely so much on markers being created
and it's arguable that creating markers for the in-memory state of an
editor is a bad idea; such markers persist if the editor is closed
without saving. You can look at how
org.eclipse.emf.edit.ui.action.ValidateAction converts diagnostics to
markers; the live validator approach doesn't need that though and does a
much more interesting job decorating the tree so you know where the
errors are, including flyover information about the errors, and also
decorates the properties view so you know which properties contribute to
the error.
