Defining a customized IBuilderState [message #1220382]

Dear Xtext Community,

I'm trying to plug a customized IBuilderState, but ClusteringBuilderState is always injected in XtextBuilder instead of my customized class (myDslBuilderState). I tried the following methods:
1. I added some bindings in myDslRuntimeModule and myDslUiModule from IBuilderState to myDslBuilderState.
2. I also tried to define my proper builder fragment: I copy-pasted BuilderIntegrationFragment to myDslBuilderIntegrationFragment, added the bindings from IBuilderState to myDslBuilderState in myDslBuilderIntegrationFragment and replaced in GenerateMyDsl.mwe2 the reference to BuilderIntegrationFragment by a reference to myDslBuilderIntegrationFragment.

When I search for the string "ClusteringBuilderState" in my modified code, it appears nowhere, thus I don't understand how it can still be injected in builderState field of XtextBuilder.

Has someone an idea on how to proceed ?

Thanks in advance for your help,
Florence

Hi,

you have to use an extra guice module

public class YourBuilderModule extends AbstractGenericModule {
  //bind here
}

  <extension
        point="org.eclipse.xtext.ui.shared.overridingGuiceModule">
     <module
           class="xxxx.ui.YourBuilderModule">
     </module>
  </extension>
