Description Kai Kreuzer

2011-11-09 06:43:32 EST

Build Identifier: Xtext 2.1.0

Usecase as follows:
- A custom ITypeProvider is implemented which extends XbaseTypeProvider
- This type provider is bound to Class<? extends ITypeProvider> in the RuntimeModule.

This leads to "Type computation is not implemented for..." exceptions, although the type provider implements the type() methods for the relevant types.

As a workaround the custom type provider can be additionally bound to ITypeArgumentContextHelper, which solves the problem.

Please find details on this at http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/261225/


Reproducible: Always
