Hi all,

running my Xpand template with MWE is no problem:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<workflow>
     <property name="metamodel" 
value="metamodels/cif/nl.tue.cif.v2x1x1.metamodel/model/cif.ecore"/>
     <property name="model" 
value="m2t/cif_cifascii/nl.tue.cif.v2x1x1.cifascii.v2x1x1/test_models/example.cifx"/>
     <property name="outputdir" value="test_models"/>

     <!-- set up EMF for standalone execution -->
     <bean class="org.eclipse.emf.mwe.utils.StandaloneSetup">
         <platformUri value="../../.."/>
         <RegisterEcoreFile value="platform:/resource/${metamodel}"/>
     </bean>

     <!-- instantiate metamodel -->
     <bean id="mm_emf" 
class="org.eclipse.xtend.typesystem.emf.EmfRegistryMetaModel"/>

     <!-- load model and store it in slot 'model' -->
     <component class="org.eclipse.emf.mwe.utils.Reader">
         <uri value="platform:/resource/${model}"/>
         <modelSlot value="model"/>
     </component>

     <!--  generate code -->
     <component class="org.eclipse.xpand2.Generator">
         <metaModel idRef="mm_emf"/>
         <expand value="template::Template::expSpecification FOR model"/>
         <outlet name='OUT_FILE' path="${outputdir}/example.cif"/>
     </component>
</workflow>


This works fine. However, I'm trying to run the template from Java code
in a different project, without using the MWE file at all. I'm trying to
use the XpandFacade class. I have this code:

         (...)
	String templateName = "expSpecification"
         String outputFolder = "xpandOutput";
         List<Object> params = new ArrayList<Object>();
         EObject targetObject = inResource.getContents().get(0);

         OutputImpl output = new OutputImpl();
         Outlet outlet = new Outlet(outputFolder);
         outlet.setOverwrite(true);
         output.addOutlet(outlet);
         Outlet outputOutlet = new Outlet("testOutput");
         outputOutlet.setName("OUT_FILE");
         output.addOutlet(outputOutlet);

         XpandExecutionContextImpl executionContext = new 
XpandExecutionContextImpl(output, null);
         executionContext.registerMetaModel(new EmfRegistryMetaModel());

         org.eclipse.xtend.expression.Resource template = 
executionContext.getResourceManager().loadResource("/mnt/(...anonymized...)/nl.tue.cif.v2x1x1.cifascii.v2x1x1/src/template/Template", 
"xpt");
         executionContext = 
(XpandExecutionContextImpl)(executionContext.cloneWithResource(template));
         XpandFacade facade = XpandFacade.create(executionContext);
         facade.evaluate2(templateName, targetObject, params);


This does indeed locate the metamodels, and the Xpand template. However,
upon execution I get:

EvaluationException : Couldn't find operation 'urgentToString(Boolean)' 
for cif::Model.

The urgentToString is located in GeneratorExtensions.ext, in the same
directory as the Template.xpt file, but Xpand can't find it. How do I
tell Xpand where to find the Xtend file?

Thanks,
Dennis

Hi,

did you import the Xtend file within you Xpand template:

«EXTENSION path::to::GeneratorExtensions»

Hi Christian,

Yes, I have this in my Xpand template:

«EXTENSION template::GeneratorExtensions»

Best,
Dennis

Make sure the template as well as the extension file is on your process'
classpath and reove the following two lines (the resource manager will
load the files from classpath) :

org.eclipse.xtend.expression.Resource template =
>
executionContext.getResourceManager().loadResource(" /mnt/(...anonymized...)/nl.tue.cif.v2x1x1.cifascii.v2x1x1/sr c/template/Template ",
> "xpt");
> executionContext =
> (XpandExecutionContextImpl)(executionContext.cloneWithResour ce(template));

That did the trick!

Thanks,
