Svn propedit ignore6/4/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() So these files must be excluded from Version Control Using Subversion Otherwise this would confuse your SCM system. Now comes again a detail related to source control: Since we want to have the src-gen checked in, we have to avoid that the SCM related folders and files are removed. compilation fails, since the generated sources are missing nowįor this reason the clean plugin must be configured only in the grammar project, and it should clean up the sources from all 3 projects.the project will be cleaned, removing the previously generated sources.now the build continues with the next module, e.g.the sources for the grammar project are compiled.in phase generate-sources the Xtext implementation classes are produced to all 3 projects.If you execute a “mvn clean install” this would have the effect that It is not correct to configure the clean plugin for all 3 projects due the lifecycle of a Maven build: The projects will be build after each other, executing all lifecycles per project. One thing to consider is that Xtext has 3 projects. This can be done by configuring the maven-clean-plugin. The content of the src-gen folders must be cleaned up as well. The target folder will be removed by default, but this is not enough. When running mvn clean on your project you would like to to clean up all derived resources. On the root of each of the 3 Xtext projects, set the property svn:ignore to this value: So the Java source compilation fails, aborting the build. Xtend files cannot be compiled until Java sources from the same project were compiled, and some Java sources will depend on about-to-be-compiled Xtend sources. To cut this story short: Xtend and Java files depend usually on each other. xtend files during a Maven build, so the content of xtend-gen must be checked in and handled like handcrafted sources. The xtend-gen folderĪt the moment it is not possible to compile. After the folder was scheduled for adding, you can set the svn:ignore property to value “*”. To do so, add the folder with svn add, but none of its content! Best you do this immediately after the Xtext project was created. I prefer to check in the src-gen folder, but avoid that any content gets checked in. If using project specific settings you could even check in these settings and share it in the team. mwe2 file will be copied anyway to the target folder. If you rate down build path problems to warning level or just disable build abortion on errors, the. This behavior can be changed in the workspace / project settings in Java / Compiler / Building. It will be copied automatically with default workspace settings only when the build path is complete. mwe2 file needs to be on the project’s classpath, which is not the folder src, but the output folder, bin or target/classes. ![]() This leads to an incomplete build path, and the MWE2 workflow is not executable from Eclipse until the folder was created. What needs to be considered is that is no good idea to ignore the folder completely, since it would be missing when fresh checking out the project. The content of src-gen can be produced during a build, so I do not check in the content of it. In this article I will show some guidelines that I follow when checking in Xtext projects into source control. Further, you will usually have 3 projects: The grammar project, the UI project and a test project. Xtext projects have the source folders src-gen and xtend-gen, where generated sources go to. I follow the rule that I don’t want to check in what can be generated in a headless build, where I usually use Maven. Although I more and more use Git for source control, I face Subversion still frequently in daily life. ![]()
