Gonzalo,
I think this is more a question for the UML2 newsgroup, since that
project implements the UML importer and they can describe the various
stereotypes that are supported for mapping to Ecore better than me.
I've added that newsgroup to the "to" list so we can continue to use
this thread.

Hi Gonzalo,
I'm not sure how Omondo handles these types but opensource UML implements a
XMLPrimitiveTypes.library.uml and UMLPrimitiveTypes.library.uml that should
be used.
You can experiment with the opensource editor by typing your properties with
primitive types coming from these libraries and then generating your .ecore
model.
That should work.
You can alternatively stereotype your primitive types with <eDataType>
(from the ecore profile) and specify the instance class name explicitly.
Regards,
- James.

The importer doesn't seem to differentiate between Class and Datatype.

Classes. But when I import the same as ecore, there is no difference between
DataTypes and classes.
Also for the primitive type, java.util.Date in uml file changed to
javautilDate.
When I generate classes using the genmodel I get classes for Datatypes as
well. As expected javautilDate gives an error.
Please let me know if I am not clear.

Hi Pradeep,
UML Primitive types map to ecore DataTypes.
UML Data types map to ecore Classes.
Ecore does not make distinctions between UML primitive types and UML data
types.
The name of your java.util.Date is not an appropriate ecore metatype name so
the periods were removed. I think what you really want to do is create a
type called "Date", then use a <<eDataType>> stereotype and set the instance
class name to java.util.Date. Or use the primitive types libraries as
mentioned previously.

Hi James,
I assume by type you mean an actual Class. But I don't see an option to
specify a stereotype in the diagram editor. How do i specify it?
Thanks

Pradeep,
My guess is James meant for you to create a UML Primitive Type as this is
where you can apply the <<eDataType>> stereotype.
Incase you don't have the profile here are the steps.
First you need to apply the ecore profile: Click on your model and use
Package->Apply Profile..
Then you need to apply the stereotype: Click on the primitive type and use
Element->Apply Stereotype..
The additional properties provided by the stereotype will appear in the
properties view under the "EData Type" category
Hope that helps.
This thread has reminded me of a something I've been meaning to ask... I'll
pop it in another thread.
Tas.

Hi Gonzalo,
I'm not sure how Omondo handles these types but opensource UML implements a
XMLPrimitiveTypes.library.uml and UMLPrimitiveTypes.library.uml that should
be used.
You can experiment with the opensource editor by typing your properties with
primitive types coming from these libraries and then generating your .ecore
model.
That should work.
You can alternatively stereotype your primitive types with <eDataType>
(from the ecore profile) and specify the instance class name explicitly.
Regards,
- James.

If you define the Datatypes in your .uml model they will be created in the

DataTypes and classes.
Also for the primitive type, java.util.Date in uml file changed to
javautilDate.
When I generate classes using the genmodel I get classes for Datatypes as
well. As expected javautilDate gives an error.
Please let me know if I am not clear.

Hi Pradeep,
UML Primitive types map to ecore DataTypes.
UML Data types map to ecore Classes.
Ecore does not make distinctions between UML primitive types and UML data
types.
The name of your java.util.Date is not an appropriate ecore metatype name so
the periods were removed. I think what you really want to do is create a
type called "Date", then use a <<eDataType>> stereotype and set the instance
class name to java.util.Date. Or use the primitive types libraries as
mentioned previously.

Hi James,
I assume by type you mean an actual Class. But I don't see an option to
specify a stereotype in the diagram editor. How do i specify it?
Thanks

Pradeep,
My guess is James meant for you to create a UML Primitive Type as this is
where you can apply the <<eDataType>> stereotype.
Incase you don't have the profile here are the steps.
First you need to apply the ecore profile: Click on your model and use
Package->Apply Profile..
Then you need to apply the stereotype: Click on the primitive type and use
Element->Apply Stereotype..
The additional properties provided by the stereotype will appear in the
properties view under the "EData Type" category
Hope that helps.
This thread has reminded me of a something I've been meaning to ask... I'll
pop it in another thread.
Tas.
