Bug 324297

Comment 1 Moritz Eysholdt 2011-01-11 10:03:41 EST

as of bug 333976, this use case will be handled by the sequencer and render this report obsolete.

Comment 2 Moritz Eysholdt 2011-10-18 04:17:55 EDT

The new serializer still invokes the ConcreteSyntaxValdiator (1) because the new serializer still uses local backtracking and there are cases where the ConcreteSyntaxValidator's error messages are more precise then the serialier's.

1: org.eclipse.xtext.serializer.impl.Serializer.serialize(EObject, ITokenStream, SaveOptions)

Comment 3 Christian Dietrich 2015-07-31 07:14:11 EDT

we are affected by this bug

Here is our pretty simple grammar

Model:
	things+=Thing*
	aktionen+=ThingPruefung*;
Thing:
	"thing" name=ID;
ThingPruefung:
	{ThingPruefung} "pruefe" "thing" meldung=[Thing] (("vorhanden" "=" ((vorhanden?="ja") | "nein")) |
	"=" thingText=TestdatenAusdruck);
TestdatenAusdruck:
	STRING;

And Test

@RunWith(XtextRunner)
@InjectWith(MyDslInjectorProvider)
class BugTest {

	@Inject extension ParseHelper<Model>

	@Test
	def void testIt() {
		val model = '''
			thing a
			thing b
			pruefe thing a vorhanden = nein
		'''.parse
		val r = model.eResource

		println(r.errors)
		val s = new ByteArrayOutputStream
		try {
			r.save(s, null)
			println(new String(s.toByteArray))
		} catch (Exception e) {
			e.printStackTrace
		}

	}

}

Workaround: Change the grammar to 3 ors
