I have a problem applying stereotypes to magic draw Eclipse UML2 v3.x
exported xmi files.
I create a class diagram with a profile in magic draw. The profile is
very simple and just adds a stereotype to one of the classes properties.
I export this file as an UML2 file and import it into my RCP
application. The general import works fine, I can go through all
information of the model and all elements of the profile. My problem is
that the stereotype is not applied to the property after the import.
If I use (a quit stupid) for-loop to manually apply the stereotype it
works fine. But of course this is a very static work around....
------------------------
for ( Stereotype st2:slot.getDefiningFeature().getApplicableStereotypes())
{
if (slot.getDefiningFeature().getName().equals("state") &&
st2.getName().contains("StateObject"))
{
slot.getDefiningFeature().applyStereotype(st2);
}
} //I hope the format is not too bad to read...
------------------------
So I guess the profile is properly loaded, since the information is
already stored in the ApplicableStereotypes list and applying the
stereotype with the loop works fine.
Without the previous loop I can not get any applied stereotypes but of
course there should be some. If I query the model for applied profiles I
get the right ones, so the profile itself should be correctly loaded and
applied.
From the previous posts about stereotypes in this newsgroup I learned
that I must use absolute URL for file loading etc. but nothing helps :-(
Since I spent some hours with that problem now, I dare to ask if you
have any ideas or hints?
best regards
Philipp

hi philipp,
exporting models with stereotypes applied is definitely possible, as you
wrote. we were doing it the last years due to a missing useable
modelling tool in eclipse (now we use papyrus). Maybe take a closer look
at the implementation of the UMLEditor and check how they actually load
the model and build up the according resource set.
cheers,
philipp
