Android Studio

[cheneveld]

Any intentions for compatibility with Android Studio?

[fluxtah]

Probably a command line runner to begin with then look into how we can support it

i would also like to see it working in Android Studio

[fluxtah]

There is a command line runner now in the build but its currently not distributed, I would need to write some docs for it.

As for Android Studio, it would not be worth my effort to support it since it does not provide support for many eclipse technologies that make DSL's possible.

+1 for support for Android Studio :) This would make us developers not bound to eclipse. I work with eclipse, but if it happens that I must work with Android Studio I would like to still be able to use mechanoid.

This would be awesome, unfortunately xText is an Eclipse product and to get it to work with Android Studio would be challenging, I have seen one project that looks like it might get it a little way there

Looks old but, could be possible

If you have been using Eclipse with ADT, be aware that Android Studio is now the official 
IDE for Android, so you should migrate to Android Studio to receive all the latest 
IDE updates

I hope now it makes it worth your effort to support it.

I did not found the command line runner, is anything distributed now ?

[intellij] Generated an intellij plugin for Xtext language
eclipse-xtext/xtext@74839b0

[fluxtah]

Yes, its coming :)

So. Are you going to make mechanoid for Android Studio now? There's also a clone of mechanoidDB for A.S.: https://github.com/justeat/mickeydb Maybe it can be of any help for creating oficial release?

[fluxtah]

Hey @samiuelson yes, mickeydb is now the official Mechanoid DB project, I am no longer working on Mechanoid Db in favour of mickeydb.

We are just waiting on an official xtext release that will give us intellij support for the mickeydb grammar
