prevent compiling in xtext-maven-plugin [message #1753007] Wed, 01 February 2017 00:35 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
I created a pom.xml. The contents are basically the same in this link:
https://github.com/ghillairet/xcore-maven-example/blob/master/pom.xml. It can compile without problem.

But, I need my .xcore to refer to some methods in a Test.xtend file. And I am getting an error saying "org.generator.Test cannot be resolved". I don't need it to compile the java classes. I just want xcore to generate the java classes, as these will then be compiled together with the xtend classes. Is it possible to configure the xtext-maven-plugin to just tell xcore to generate the classes?

Hi,

i dont get that.
there are actual references inside the xcore file. thus it needs to see the xtend files (well you could call the xtend maven plugin first.

and cant reproduce it.

did you adapt the pom to handle xtend files ?!?

Hi Christian,
No, i did not adapt the pom. My problem is from a clean build the java classes from xtend will not be generated yet. So, the classes technically does not exist yet when xcore is compiling. Can the xtext-maven-plugin accept xtend classes?

Currently, in my .xcore file, I import an xtend class. And it is called in an operation.
import org.generator.Test

class Greetings {
 String name
 int age
 op String checkValid() {
   if (Test::getState(age))
      return "You are still a minor."
  return "Adult"
 }
}


If I remove the call to the Test method and the import, it can compile successfully.
My xtend file is in src folder, and the generated java classes is in xtend-gen. I did not include either of these directories in my pom.xml.

as i said what you try to do makes no sense

(a) you have to call xtend maven before xtext maven since xcore needs to find the xtend file or the generated java file for it
(b) you need to enable the xtext maven plugin to see xtend as well (my snippets)

Hi Christian,
I tried your suggestion above but I get this error.

Do I need to create a separate plugin for xtend?

no i dont think so do you?!?
https://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Corg.eclipse.xtend%7Corg.eclipse.xtend.core%7C2.10.0%7Ceclipse-plugin
are you sure the xtend core plugin is available in your maven repo config? did you run maven with -U

i managed to make it work. but I encountered another problem.

My project's flow is this:
xcore
-> used by the xtext grammar
-> also does some operations and refers to the methods defined in xtend.

xtend
-> transforms and generate the classes
-> calls the op methods in xcore
-> refers to the xtext variables

Thus, xcore depends on the java classes of xtend, and xtend depends on the xtext variables which also depends on the xcore stuffs.
All these are in one project. This is not a problem if build is being handled by Eclipse IDE. But when being run by the maven script in a "clean" environment (no generated sources from xtend yet), this becomes a problem.

So, I was thinking that for XcoreStandaloneSetup, it just simple generates the .java files without checking for the validity. The validity will be checked anyway, when xtend is compiled. I noticed that with Eclipse IDE, only the java files are generated. There are no .class files. But when running maven, .class files are there. Thus, is it possible to skip this part (the .class files) of the xcore compiler?

as i said: thats no possible.
thus another question

is it a real circle xtend -> xcore -> xtend or is it a loose circle some xtend -> xcore -> some other xtend?
if so you could solve this by having two projects or separate source folders i think

it is a real circle, unfortunately.
