Preface
Xtext is an open source Eclipse framework for implementing Domain Specific Languages together with their integration in the Eclipse IDE. Xtext lets you implement languages quickly by covering all aspects of a complete language infrastructure, starting from the parser, code generator, or interpreter, up to a full Eclipse IDE integration (with all the typical IDE features such as editor with syntax highlighting, code completion, error markers, automatic build infrastructure, and so on).
This book will incrementally guide you through the very basics of DSL implementation with Xtext and Xtend, such as grammar definition, validation, and code generation; the book will then cover advanced concepts such as unit testing, type checking, and scoping. ...
