Xtext - Custom made terminal string without quotes - eclipse

Question

I´m new to Xtext and have a problem.
When I try to create a terminal String without quotes I always get EOF errors.
If I comment out the code for the String without quotes I´dont get an error and everything works fine.
Can someone explain me this?
Or give me some hint how I could better solve this?
Thank you very much
// String without quotes
terminal STRINGWQ: ( ('a'..'z'|'A'..'Z')('a'..'z' | 'A'..'Z' | '_'| '-' | '§' | '?' | '!'| '#'
| '\n' | ':' |'%' | '.' | '*' | '^' | ',' | '&' | '('|')'| '0'..'9'|' ')*);
Rest of Code
grammar org.xtext.example.mydsl.MyDsl with org.eclipse.xtext.common.Terminals
generate myDsl "http://www.xtext.org/example/mydsl/MyDsl"
Model:
(elements += GITest)*
;
GITest:
KWHeader | KWTestCase
;
// KeyWords Header
KWHeader:
'Test' '!''?'
;
KWTestCase:
'testcase' int=INT ':' title = ID |
'Hello' names=ID '!'
;
UPDATE:
Data Type Rule
QSTRING returns ecore::EString: //custom terminal SurveyString
(('a'|'b'|'c'|'d'|'e'|'f'|'g'|'h'|'i'|'j'|'k'|'l'|'m'|'n'|'o'|'p'|'q'|'r'|'s'|'t'|'u'|'v'|'w'|'x'|'y'|'z'|
'A'|'B'|'C'|'D'|'E'|'F'|'G'|'H'|'I'|'J'|'K'|'L'|'M'|'N'|'O'|'P'|'Q'|'R'|'S'|'T'|'U'|'V'|'W'|'X'|'Y'|'Z'|' ')
('a'|'b'|'c'|'d'|'e'|'f'|'g'|'h'|'i'|'j'|'k'|'l'|'m'|'n'|'o'|'p'|'q'|'r'|'s'|'t'|'u'|'v'|'w'|'x'|'y'|'z'|
'A'|'B'|'C'|'D'|'E'|'F'|'G'|'H'|'I'|'J'|'K'|'L'|'M'|'N'|'O'|'P'|'Q'|'R'|'S'|'T'|'U'|'V'|'W'|'X'|'Y'|'Z'|
' '|'_'|'-'|'§'|'?'|'!'|'#'|'%'|'.'|'*'|'^'|','|'&'|'('|')'|'0'|'1'|'2'|'3'|'4'|'5'|'6'|'7'|'8'|'9')*);
UPDATE 2:
Got it working with Data Type Rule und manipulating ID
Code:
STRINGWQ: ((' ')?ID)((ID)?(INT)? ' ' (ID)?);
terminal ID: '^'?('a'..'z'|'A'..'Z'|'_') ('a'..'z'|'A'..'Z'|'_'|'0'..'9'|'/'|';'|','|'#'|'!'|'§'|'$'|'%'|'&'|
'('|')'|'='|'?'|'\\'|'*'|'+'|'.'|'-'|'>'|'<'|'|'|'['|']'|'{'|'}')*;
But now I have the problem that xtext not recognizes when STRINGWQ ends.
So I dont get keyword suggestions in the next line.
For example if i dont use STRINGWQ but INT I get suggestions in the next line.
But with STRINGWQ I dont.
How can I define an end of Data Type Rules?
Thank you

Answer 1

Your STRINGWQ shadows the terminal rule ID and basically all other rules including the keywords. Chances are good that the entire document will by consumed as a single terminal token of type STRINGWQ. You should try to model your string as a datatype rule.

Answer 2

This works for me:
Property:
id=ID | int=INT | prop=PROPERTY_VALUE | spec=SPECIAL;
PROPERTY_VALUE:
(':');
SPECIAL:
(' ' | '/' | ';' | ',' | '!' | '§' | '%' | '&' | '(' | ')' | '?' | '*' | '+' | '.' | '-' | '|' | '[' | ']')
I separated the colon as I need to use PROPERTY_VALUE in another way.
But you also could add it to special.
