I am working on a XType based grammar for a JVM based language called Golo.

This language has import statements that are slightly different from the one provided by Xtype as it allows only JVM type or JVM package imports.

Once you've specified your imports, you can extend a JVM type with the augment statement.

My idea is to override the XImportDeclaration with:

XImportDeclaration:
'import' (
importedType=[JvmDeclaredType|QualifiedName]
| importedNamespace=QualifiedName)
;

So, I'm facing an issue: both item have a QualifiedName syntax so I could keep a single item but I could not find something like JvmDeclaredNamespace. If I keed only the first item, then the content assist will propose only JVM declared types and not JVM declared packages. How can I achieve such functionality ?

Hi Jeff,

that is not possible. There is no way to destinguish between the cross
reference and a plaing value.

You could tweak the linking such that it ignores the unresolvable
reference if you try to load a jvmDeclaredType with the name of a
package. See ILinkingDiagnosticMessageProvider.

Regards,
Sebastian

Thanks for the tip.
I have another question regarding the content assist. If I keep the declaration as a jvmDeclaredType, then the content assist will propose only Java types and not Java packages, right ? So I should complete the content assist with Java packages, no ?
