Generate Java code from a Java model [message #776997]

Hey guys,

I want to generate java code from a .xmi model. I extracted the model from a project and now I want to generate code refers to ttp://wiki.eclipse.org/MoDisco/Components/Java/Documentation/0.9#Java_Generation

But when I write the sample code I get an error:

"The type org.eclipse.acceleo.engine.service.AbstractAcceleoGenerator cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files"

My code:

 	GenerateJavaExtended javaGenerator = new GenerateJavaExtended(URI.createFileURI("../Model.xmi"),
				    new File("../myOutputFolder"), new ArrayList<Object>());
			
	javaGenerator.doGenerate(null);

I added the org.eclipse.gmt.modisco.java.generation as a dependencie to my plugin.xml but it doesn't work.

So can someone help me?

Greetings
Marcus

Hello,

I think you also have to add the plug-in 'org.eclipse.acceleo.engine' in your plug-in dependencies.

If its works, tell me, I'll update the documentation.

Hey Gregoire,

thanks for your reply. It solves my problem, thank you. But now I have a further problem.

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Cannot create a resource for 'jar:file:[..]/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.gmt.modisco.java.generation_0.9.1.v201109150824.jar!/org/eclipse/gmt/modisco/java/generation/files/GenerateJava.emtl'; a registered resource factory is needed
	at org.eclipse.emf.ecore.resource.impl.ResourceSetImpl.getResource(ResourceSetImpl.java:394)
	at org.eclipse.acceleo.common.utils.ModelUtils.load(ModelUtils.java:348)
	at org.eclipse.acceleo.engine.service.AbstractAcceleoGenerator.initialize(AbstractAcceleoGenerator.java:441)
	at org.eclipse.gmt.modisco.java.generation.files.GenerateJava.<init>(GenerateJava.java:85)
	at org.eclipse.gmt.modisco.java.generation.files.GenerateJavaExtended.<init>(GenerateJavaExtended.java:39)
	at MDSDMoDiscoProject.GenerateJavaCode.main(GenerateJavaCode.java:34)

I tried to solve this problem with the following code but it doesn't work:

		
XMIResourceFactoryImpl xmiResourceFactoryImpl = new XMIResourceFactoryImpl() {
			public Resource createResource(URI uri) {
				XMIResource xmiResource = new XMIResourceImpl(uri);
				return xmiResource;
			}
		};

Resource.Factory.Registry.INSTANCE.getExtensionToFactoryMap().put(
		"xmi", xmiResourceFactoryImpl);

Any further advises or tips?

Regards
Marcus

Hello,

I think you haven't installed or enable the plug-in 'org.eclipse.acceleo.model' in your target platform. This plug-in is not required for the compilation but it is required for the execution.

I've opened a bug asking to reexport the required dependencies (Bug 368318).

Grégoire

Hey,

that works for me. Thank you.

I've also added the following dependencies:

com.google.inject;bundle-version="2.0.0",
com.google.collect;bundle-version="1.0.0",
org.eclipse.jdt.core;bundle-version="3.7.1"

I guess the last one was for the code formatter.

Marcus

Hello,
unfortunately i don't yet solve the same problem.
I used both method illustrated in online guide but both don't run correctly. I use eclipse Indigo.

The errors are:
- Couldn't load class org.eclipse.gmt.modisco.java.generation.files.GenerateJavaExtended. Check that its containing package is exported. -> if I use the second mode with Acceleo as runner.

- Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Cannot create a resource for './prova.xmi'; a registered resource factory is needed -> if i use the first mode and also if i use the second mode with Java Application as runner.

I imported all library indicated in this topic but it doesn't run good.

Somebody can explain better how it does?

Thank you.

p.s.: sorry for my english Wink

Hello,
finally i solved the problem!!!

These are the steps (with Eclipse Indigo):
1. import in workspace the plugin org.eclipse.gmt.modisco.java.generation by File/Import/Plugin and fragments;

2. in src folder create a java Classe that like this:

public class Generation {

	public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
		XMIResourceFactoryImpl xmiResourceFactoryImpl = new XMIResourceFactoryImpl() {
			public Resource createResource(URI uri) {
				XMIResource xmiResource = new XMIResourceImpl(uri);
				return xmiResource;
			}
		};

		Resource.Factory.Registry.INSTANCE.getExtensionToFactoryMap().put(
				"xmi", xmiResourceFactoryImpl);

		GenerateJavaExtended javaGenerator = new GenerateJavaExtended(
				URI.createFileURI("src/generation/prova.xmi"),
				new File("src/"), new ArrayList<Object>());

		javaGenerator.doGenerate(null);
	}

}

3. Run this as java application.

Thanks Marcus for the Code! Smile

Hi David,

glad that you have succeeded in launching generation from some main() method, calling some xmi resource factory registration.

There are several ways of reusing the generation acceleo module, with several technical difficulties. We recommend this one : invoking GenerateJavaExtended class in one java plugin project, with dependencies to org.eclipse.gmt.modisco.java.generation installed plugin. Then the code must be executed within an eclipse context ("Eclipse Application" Run Config)

Modisco Documentation has been updated (Bug 372090) for focusing on this recommendation.

Regards,
Fabien.

Dear Fabien,

I checked the java generation with the latest modisco release and noticed that:

1. Acceleo misses the emtl file when I import the plugin as a project (java.io.IOException: 'GenerateJava.emtl' not found)

2. When checking out the source from the svn trunk:
a) The svn repository location is outdated:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/MoDisco/JavaGeneration#Install
must be changed to
https://dev.eclipse.org/svnroot/modeling/org.eclipse.mdt.modisco/main/trunk/org.eclipse.gmt.modisco.java.generation/

b) Acceleo requires the generator plugin to have access to some google classes
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Acceleo/FAQ#Exception_in_thread_.22main.22_java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:_com.2Fgoogle.2Fcommon.2Fbase.2FPredicate
which are meanwhile hosted within the google guava project. The guava plugin might already be installed, but the modisco java generator plugin requires a dependency to com.google.guava

Could you please update the documentation and the java generation project or can you tell me how I could contribute this update to your resources?

Thanks in advance
Benjamin

Hi Benjamin,

thank you for these observations.
2a) i have updated the wiki documentation
2b) i was not aware of these google plugins dependency. I will have a look at it for understanding.
