Description Sebastian Zarnekow CLA 2011-09-20 04:35:04 EDT 
A declaration view similar to Java's declaration view would be interesting. This view could inject all the infered types into the Xtend code.
Comment 1 Knut Wannheden CLA 2011-09-20 04:45:56 EDT 
It would probably make sense to define some of the generic supporting code in the xtext.ui plug-in as this could be useful to many Xtext based DSLs.

+1 this should go into Xtext. The patch doesn't seem to have any Xtend dependencies so far.

pushed to master
Comment 5 Sven Efftinge CLA 2012-02-07 08:55:22 EST 
The declaration view should refer to services from the declaring language, using IUiResourceServiceProvider. 

Every language has different syntax coloring, and it should be possible to provide contributions for non-Xtext languages (e.g. Java / JDT).
