[GMF Tooling] Documentation on gmfgen [message #759825]

Hi everyone,

I have been a user of GMF Tooling for over the last 6 month but I would like to improve my skills on this domain. So I would like to know which references ( websites , books etc..) could I use to learn more about all the attributes of the GMF Gen model (There so many of them I am not really of what they do). I have been looking over several wikis and stuff but nothing seems to describes what I am looking for.

Any documentation of the subject would be appreciated.

Regards,

Arthur Daussy

The wiki is the primary and best maintained source of information:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Graphical_Modeling_Framework
But not always the best structured and easy one.

This may help you:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Graphical_Modeling_Framework/Models/GMFGen

Also I just want to remind you that the GMF documentation is owned by
the community. So if you want to fix or improve it; then please do it!

Thanks you answer. However I have already found all of those documentation.
Yes, I would like to participate to document it however to do so I have to be sure of what you are doing.
Is it ok for you if when I need information I use this topic to ask you.
If you agree with that I will be able to complete the doc about GMF in http://wiki.eclipse.org/Graphical_Modeling_Framework/Models/GMFGen.

Since GMF Tooling dev team has totally changed, most questions will be
more about "what previous committer did" rather than "what current
committer are doing", but we'll try to answer ;)

For sure, that's why this forum is for!

We all trust one and other, if you feel that you are able to update the
wiki, don't ask any agreement: just do it.
Wiki has revision, so that even if you make some very bad things, it is
easy to rollback. (I use it often ;)

So my first question:

Is it a bug when you set the ModelElementSelector of a TypeModelFacet with an OCL Constraint an it generated the following code:

........
if(UMLPackage.eINSTANCE.getBehavior().isSuperTypeOf(domainElement.eClass()) && isBehavior_690(containerView, (Behavior)domainElement)) {
return EntryStateBehaviorEditPart.VISUAL_ID;
}
........
/**
* @generated
*/
private static boolean isBehavior_690(Behavior domainElement) {
Object result = UMLOCLFactory.getExpression(2, UMLPackage.eINSTANCE.getBehavior(), null).evaluate(domainElement);
return result instanceof Boolean && ((Boolean)result).booleanValue();
}
.........

So it do not compile?

If generated code does not compile, then I think it is a bug.
Please report it to the tracker with the gmf* files causing the issue.
