The type *Rules is already defined in *.rules (org.eclipse.xtext.xbase.validation.IssueCodes.duplicate_type)

[SHU-red]

Expected Behavior

No error should occur if i open up my homeserver via ssh and open a .rule file

Current Behavior

As i open up any .rule file, the whole rule file is marked as error with the error-text
The type GooglehomeRules is already defined in googlehome.rules.(org.eclipse.xtext.xbase.validation.IssueCodes.duplicate_type)

Possible Solution

• It seems that if i open only the folder openhab_conf in VSCode the error is gone
• But i want to see more of my whole dockerized folders, thats why i always open up my docker_volumes folder
  (openhab_conf is placed at: */docker_volumes/openhab_conf)

Steps to Reproduce (for Bugs)

1. Open VSCode (my docker_volumes folder is opened as standard and one level higher than openhab_conf)
2. Open a Random .rule file
3. The whole .rule-file is marked as error

As complete Linux/Docker/Container/Volume Dummy I experienced the same and was happy to read this solution.
It would be nice if you could start from eg "/opt/" and select from here the lower Docker Volume of Openhab "./conf:/openhab/conf" but on the other hand it is not a normal folder but a Docker Volume and the workaround is simple just add a second entry for this purpose (and yes I am sure the system will slap me on the the ears again the next time I forget to select this entry)

Any update on this?

I have exactly the same issue :-/

I'm randomly getting the same issue now. OH4.1 on Docker. Restarts, renames and re-saves sometimes fix it. Does not always appear. Usual file name is home.rules
The type HomeRules is already defined in home.rules.(org.eclipse.xtext.xbase.validation.IssueCodes.duplicate_type)

Is this extension still maintained? Anybody any clue where this issue is caused? The only reference in code to eclipse.xtext.xbase is in the "simple lambda" in openhab_rules_designpattern.json. I wish I understood better how this was used :).

After I moved from 4.x openHABian to 5.0 docker, I faced the same issue.
When I open conf folder, everything seems to be fine. But using another one (like the rules folder directly or the folder above conf), I always get this error.
However, it looks like that this extension is unfortunately not maintained any longer. 😔
