Re: [modeling-pmc] Restructuring of Xtext

[Ed Willink <ed@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Sven

You answered most of my questions one question early, so elaborating the final one, which I think you answered anyway:

MWE2 currently produces a main +1 build, and a later distinct MWE2-lang +3 build dependent on Xtext at +2.

OCL-core is the traditional OCL +1 build, and a later enlarged OCL-tools +3 is dependent on Xtext at +2.

So you will in future do:
+1 MWE2
+2 Xtend, Xtext in their entirety
+3 MWE2-lang

So OCL can continue to do
+1 OCL-core
+3 OCL-tools

Hi Ed,

Presumably "tools.xtend" is just the project name; package and plugin names are unchanged.

No, the bundle and package names will be changed from 'org.eclipse.xtext.xtend2' to 'org.eclipse.xtend'

There is no API involved (besides the library).

For the library we'll provide the old bundle name in addition for backwards compatibility.

But it will be deprecated.

Presumably Xtext will depend on Xtend so downstream projects will just need to add the extra build dependency to their Hudson jobs.

This is not that straightforward.

Xtend the runtime and the IDE depends on Xtext.

But Xtext depends on Xtend's library.

But we'll do everything in +2, so this will be mostly transparent to downstream projects.

How much of ...xtext.xtend2... migrates to xtend?

/org.eclipse.xtext.xtend2

/org.eclipse.xtext.xtend2.bootstrapdoc

/org.eclipse.xtext.xtend2.doc

/org.eclipse.xtext.xtend2.lib

/org.eclipse.xtext.xtend2.m2e

/org.eclipse.xtext.xtend2.standalone

/org.eclipse.xtext.xtend2.standalone.tests

/org.eclipse.xtext.xtend2.tests

/org.eclipse.xtext.xtend2.ui

/org.eclipse.xtext.xtend2.ui.tests

/org.eclipse.xtend2.maven.plugin

How will the xtend.ui interdependency with xtext be handled? will there be a double update site as for MWE2 and OCL?

Could you please elaborate? I don't think I understand.

Sven

Hi all,

we plan to move the language Xtend out of Xtext. The new home should be "tools.xtend".
Please find attached the current draft of the document for the restructuring review (not yet scheduled).

Regards,
Sven
