Custom languages masquarding as a java source file within IntelliJ
I've tried a stub implementation and things didn't work the way that I had expected; so I suspect I am either totally wrong or missing something vital.
First a bit of background. I have a custom language that generates Java code, its usually a one to one mapping (ie one custom file generates one java file, but thats not going to always be the case). Currently in IDEA I get red lines in any Java code that refers to the generated code because IDEA does not know about the generated java files.. I can always point IDEA at the generated source directory but since the build regenerates them every run it sometimes causes IDEA to get out of sync, plus the goto support goes to the wrong file. So what I am trying to achieve is a seamless integration where IDEA knows about the custom language and treats it like a Java file.
I have the lexer and AST parser in place, and am now starting on the PSI bit. Am I correct in thinking that I need to implement the PsiJava* interfaces (eg PsiClass), and have the PsiFile return true for canContainJavaCode?
I briefly tried this with a skeleton implementation, but nothing seemed to happen. By that I mean ctrl-n did not detect the generated class and when I typed the name of the generated class in a Java file there was not 'would you like the import statement added for you' prompt. Sticking some debug code in I noticed that processDeclarations was never called even though getClasses was.
I also tried using ElementFactory.createClassFromText, passing in the generated java source to create a PsiClass and then returned that PsiClass from PsiJavaFile.getClasses but that had no effect.. infact the PsiFile was called _Dummy which made me think that the production of PsiClass was not successful (the code that I passed in was 'package com.foo; public class Account { public String getName() { return null;} }'.
Has anybody else done anything similar that I could take a look at?
Thanks,
- Chris.

Chris,
Long ago the following approach was working OK. You can try it now.

Our solution to this problem is to add a pre-build task to ensure that
generated files are up to date. It does get out of sync but we make sure
to rebuild after making changes to generating file.
I would love if you found a solution. I hope you will keep this forum
posted with your findings.
Was this of any help? Do you need any comments on the code?
