jar in Editor-Plugin [message #1225361]

Hi,

currently I'm on xtext 2.4.3, and I want to include a jar in the Editorplugin.
I tried importing it in the ui project part, and adding it to the build path in the plugin.xml. But the jar doesn't appear in the package.
Is there anything to adapt in the plugin.xml or in the wizard environment?

The whole thing is about referencing this jar, that contains an external validator, in a java-file in the src-gen folder. Maybe someone has also a more elegant way for doing this. Wink

Thanks for the help!

Hi you have to add it in the Build.properties and in the manifest (runtime tab/classpath section)

P.S: if the other project/thingy is a plugin project too (can can convert a java project to a such)
you can simply add a dependency (require bundle)

Hi Christian,

thank you very much for you help!

I tried the steps you mentioned first with no success.
The tip to convert the jar into a plugin project helped.

But I had to add the ui project package to the XyzProjectCreator.java:

	protected List<String> getRequiredBundles() {
		List<String> result = Lists.newArrayList(super.getRequiredBundles());
		result.add("path.to.project.name.ui");
		result.add(DSL_GENERATOR_PROJECT_NAME);
		return result;
	}

This isn't elegant, because the whole ui project is included in the Editor dependencies, but works for the moment.
