HOWTO setup a mapping (uml2 profile) [message #521326]

Till now I use oaw4 (classic) with uml (MD10.0) to generate my artifacts from my model.
Stereotyped elements are mapped to class instances provided by my metamodel and this
is controlled by my mapping file.

Now I try to accomplish this with the ecore/uml facilities provied by oaw5/eclipse 3.5.
After setting up a project and got it running with my profile I got stuck with
creating appropriate own meta model classes and the mapping.

How can this be done?

Here is my new mwe file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<workflow>
	<property name="model" value="AppGeneratorModel/src/metamodel/ReferenzModel.uml" />
	<property name="src-gen" value="src-gen" />
	<bean class="org.eclipse.emf.mwe.utils.StandaloneSetup" >
		<platformUri value=".."/>
	</bean>
    <bean class="org.eclipse.xtend.typesystem.uml2.Setup" standardUML2Setup="true" />
	<bean id="mm_profile" class="org.eclipse.xtend.typesystem.uml2.profile.ProfileMetaModel">
		<profile value="src/metamodel/EmsApplicationProfile.profile.uml"/>
	</bean>
	<component class="org.eclipse.emf.mwe.utils.Reader">
		<uri value="platform:/resource/${model}" />
		<modelSlot value="model" />
	</component>
	<component class="org.eclipse.xpand2.Generator">
       <fileEncoding value="UTF-8" />
		<metaModel idRef="mm_profile"/>
		<expand	value="template::IndentatedModelSurferRoot::Root FOR model" />
		<outlet path="${src-gen}" >
			<postprocessor class="org.eclipse.xpand2.output.JavaBeautifier" />
		</outlet>
	</component>
	
</workflow>

Hi Tilo,

you would have to write a model-2-model transformation, e.g. with Xtend, to map the EMF UML2 metamodel to a private one. Using the oAW classic based classes is no good idea, better would be an EMF metamodel. Logic should be done in extension functions.

Kind regards,
~Karsten

Karsten,

thanks for your reply.
Sounds fairly reasonable. Can you give me a pointer to where I find samples/tutorials/docs concerning this subject. The online docs don't give sufficent answers.

How can I recognize stereotyed elements?
How can I read the tagged values?
How do I create the corresponding target model?

thanks in advance
