[news.eclipse.modeling.amalgam] Re: Xpand file error?

Rich

Not a problem, just glad to know I'm not doing anything wrong.
I'm flitting between Amalgam and Galileo to see which gives me the most useful features, hence I'm not tied to a specific release but I like
the lightweight simplicity of Amalgam.


So I guess I should use a newer release

I'm afraid the errors are "normal" for this build, using the original Xpand
(which doesn't support URI-based imports, btw).  The GMF-based Xpand has
much improved the situation in the current release train.

The workflow file wizard provides no default content.  As both the newer
GMF-based Xpand and QVT both support Ant invocation, there is little need
for these files when using the current release train.

Sorry for the bad news.

Best,
Rich

Hi

I'm using Amalgam at the moment.

I've created a DSL project, generated model and diagram code etc.

I've also used the GMF-XPand wizard to create an xpand file in templates

If I use ctrl-space I can correctly see a list of selectable dsl's for
me to import. If I pick them I get something like <<IMPORT contract>>,
<<IMPORT uml>> etc which is what I expect. (I also have Xpand Nature
turned on by the way.) The "URI" import doesn't seem to be supported
here.

I can then build up my template as expected by using ctrl-space etc.
But when I save I get a red error flag against each import statement
despite them appearing to be working. In my dependencies I have the
following


Require-Bundle: org.eclipse.core.runtime, org.eclipse.emf.ecore;visibility:=reexport, org.eclipse.emf.ecore.xmi;visibility:=reexport, org.eclipse.uml2.uml;visibility:=reexport, org.eclipse.xpand;bundle-version="0.7.0", org.eclipse.xtend;bundle-version="0.7.0", org.eclipse.xtend.typesystem.emf;bundle-version="0.7.0", org.eclipse.emf.mwe.core;bundle-version="0.7.0" Bundle-ActivationPolicy: lazy

Any ideas please? is this a symptom of some other error?
(DSL toolkit Build id: 20081128-0606)

Also the workflow wizard just seems to create an empty text file
with no context editing support, is this really all I should get?

regards
Steve
