Entities runtime does not create src-gen folder about packtpub-xtext-book-2nd-examples HOT 3 CLOSED

The "entities-gen" folder is explained and implemented in Chapter 6 ("Customizing Xtext Components"). If you use the finished examples then you will also see the final implementation. While, when reading the book, if you try to do the code yourself, you'll get the src-gen folder. This "workflow" (do the examples yourself while reading, or try the final complete example with the final behavior) is explained at the beginning of the book.
Or did I miss what you were suggesting?

I just finished a section in Chapter 5 (so I haven't yet seen Ch. 6). And I trust that you're correct in that if I actually manually do everything, I'll get the defaults rather than what is in the samples. Since I've had several weeks of exposure to XText prior to the benefit of your book, I've just been reading rapidly and cross checking with the samples you provide rather than manually recreating them.

It may not be worth making a change just based on my experience.

So you agree to close this issue, don't you?
