[eugenia] specifying compartments in an abstract class [message #527244]

hi all

in my current model i have an abstract class that defines some containment associations, and some classes that extend that abstract class.
i now defined that abstract class as a node and the associations as compartments.
while eugenia correctly creates nodes for all nonabstract subclasses, it does not create the compartments.
i tried some other solutions like explicitely defining all subclasses as nodes, but i could not get the compartments to work.

so before i go on with this, i wanted to ask if it is at all possible to create compartments for abstract classes (actually for their nonabstract subclasses) or not?

thanks in advance

Hi Marco,

This should work. Could you please provide a minimal metamodel in
emfatic that reproduces this?

Cheers,
Dimitris

hi dimitris

once again false alarm... Smile

i checked the model again and found that the associations are in fact no containments, so it couldn't work... Confused

is there a way of achieving the same effect for non containment associations?

cheers

Hi Marco,

That's a very good question indeed :) Could you possibly investigate
this using plain-vanilla GMF? If this is possible I'd be more than happy
to add support for this to Eugenia!

Cheers,
Dimitris

i have to find a way, at least something that looks/works similar.
i'll let you know in case i'm successful.
(it may take some time though since i've other things to do first).
