Disable reference validation when serialising as EAtxt #31

Open steghoja opened 2 years ago

steghoja commented 2 years ago

At the moment, Xtext validates all cross-references and stops with a very cryptic error message when a reference cannot be resolved. Since EAXML is less stringent and there are scenarios in which an engineer might prefer an incomplete model and intentionally use incorrect references, it should be possible to write out an EAtxt file nonetheless. The editor should then show a corresponding error, of course.

@steghoja , so what is the problem here? I am a little confused.

there are scenarios in which an engineer might prefer an incomplete model and intentionally use incorrect references, it should be possible to write out an EAtxt file nonetheless. The editor should then show a corresponding error, of course.

Do you think this should be implemented but it hasn't been implemented yet? Is this what you mean?
