Description Joerg Reichert

2011-04-10 16:27:25 EDT

Build Identifier: Eclipse SDK, Version: 3.7.0, Build id: I20110310-1119, Remus Information Management (Incubation)	0.1.0.201104061020

The Xtext extension (http://www.richclient2.de/2009_09_01/extending-rim-with-xtext/#more-219) only works with an older Remus version. It should be updated to Xtext 1.0.2 and current Remus. 

Actually I started working on that task but did not get it running yet (see appendix), the editor is still a simple text editor.

With Xtext 1.0 it is now possible to remove the dependecy on JDT. 

Maybe the Xtext forms integration can be also used: http://mdenutshell.blogspot.com/2010/09/how-to-embed-xtext-editors-within.html

Reproducible: Always

FIXED, actually the only thing that had to be changed was

Injector injector = org.xtext.example.ui.internal.MyDslActivator.getInstance().getInjector("org.xtext.example.MyDsl");

to

Injector injector = org.xtext.example.ui.internal.MyDslActivator
.getInstance().getInjector("org.xtext.example.MyDsl");

in org.remus.infomngmnt.mydsl.extension.XTextDelegationEditorPart

Sorry, typo:

WAS:

Injector injector = Guice.createInjector(new org.xtext.example.MyDslRuntimeModule());

IS:

Injector injector = org.xtext.example.ui.internal.MyDslActivator
.getInstance().getInjector("org.xtext.example.MyDsl");

Great, it works. Note that you have to adapt the .ui project to export the internal package, where the org.xtext.example.ui.internal.MyDslActivator resides.

One thing I missed in the new information unit extension point is the possibility to define an icon or have I overseen something?

In the MyDslInformationRepresentation I commented out the getBodyForIndexing - is this method resp. its functionality superfluent now?

To define an image for the information unit you have to add a dependency to org.eclipse.remus.ui.infotypes bundle. Afterwards you can create an extension org.eclipse.remus.ui.infotypes.infotypeimages to map the information-type to an icon.

Great, set informationType to MYDSL and selected the icon and it works.
