[EMF Forms] Viewmodel migration to 1.9.0 fails [message #1735529]

We are trying to upgrade from EMF-ECP 1.5.1 to the latest release candidate of version 1.9.0. We have two sets of view models. One set went through the conversion with no problems. All the view models in the other set result in the exception "org.eclipse.ui.PartInitException: The input resource does not contain a valid VView. Please check your file."

A difference between the two sets of view models is the ecore models they're based on. The ecore model for the set of view models that did convert is in a single model file. The set of view models that does not convert is based on models that have a common base model defined in one ecore file and are extended in their own ecore models.

I have recreated one of the view models with version 1.9.0 by hand and defined it with the same elements as the model that was created with version 1.5.1. The two appear identical except for the addition of "/170" in the xmlns:org.eclipse.emf.ecp.view.model value and the addition of the xmi:id to all of the elements.

Does the automatic conversion deal with view models whose ecore models extend other ecore models?

Hi Charles,

actually the migration should work in both described cases.
Could you share the full stacktrace/earlier log messages and/or a minimal example?
Is there something special with your views/setup/ecores? E.g. are the rootEClass / ecorePath attributes set in the view models that fail migration? Are the ecores also installed in the IDE? Are all ecores valid at the moment?

Regards
Johannes

As far as I can tell, the view models have the rootEClass and ecorePath attributes set. And the ecores are in in a project in the workspace (if that is what you're asking about being installed in the IDE). And they are all valid.

Below is the stack trace from the View Model Editor after I say Yes to the "Do you want to migrate it to the latest version?"

Attached are two ecore models that are referenced by the attached view model. Any pointers to getting these migrated will be very much appreciated.

Hi,
your ecores have references to the Ecore.ecore. But the serialized references are mixing "http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore#" and "../../org.eclipse.emf.ecore/model/Ecore.ecore#" to address it. So when you open both ecores in a text editor and replace "../../org.eclipse.emf.ecore/model/Ecore.ecore#" with "http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore#" in both files, then restart your IDE and try the migration again, it should work.
Cheers
Johannes

I made the changes to the ecore models and was able to do the migration of the view models. I was unable to answer "Yes" to the question of whether I wanted to migrate all the view models. When I tried that, I got the "The input resource does not contain a valid VView. Please check your file." message. I had to migrate them individually.

Thanks for the help.

We're migrating from 1.5.1 to the latest version to make use of the localization feature that was introduced in 1.6.0. I've tried following the instructions shown at How to customize EMF Forms and am not seeing that the properties are being used.

So far, I have tried only to externalize the names of some Leaf Categories of a Categorization. For instance, I gave the Name field the value "%General". In the plug-in's OSGI-INF/l10n/bundle.properties I added the entry:

General = GENERAL

When the form is rendered, the category appears as "%General". From what I understand, I don't need to add an Bundle-initialization entry in the MANIFEST.MF since that is the default location. (But I did try adding Bundle-initialization and Bundle-initialisation entries but resulted in no change.)

Am I missing something?

Hi,

this might be because of missing dependencies. You can (temporarily) add the org.eclipse.emfforms.setup.base to your launch configuration, validate and add anything that is missing. This bundle has no functionality but lists the most common dependencies.
Does this solve the problem?

Cheers

I'm thinking now that it is because I haven't gotten our custom renderers refactored to play fully with the new framework. The LocalizationViewModelService.instantiate method is reached by way of the EMVFormsLegacyServiceFactory. There is no LocalizationAdapter among the VView's adapters. So I'm thinking that my problem will be solved once I figure out how our custom renderers need to be refactored.

Thanks.

After a bit more work, I am still not able to see view model elements being localized (such as the Name of a Leaf Category of a Categorization). I am pretty sure that I have removed all of our customizations (custom renderers and layout provider). I thought that maybe our customizations were interfering with the localization. But, when it gets to where a name is specified with a "%", the localizationAdapter is null. Below is the stack trace to the point where a "%"-prefixed word is supposed to be localized but the localizationAdapter is null. Does this give any clues?

Thanks for your attention.

I figured out what I was missing in the localizing problem. I missed the sentence "If you provide a View Model by your own means (e.g. by implementing a ViewModelProvider), you can simply add a LocalizationAdapter to the View element manually." When I added the LocalizationAdapter in our ViewModelProvider, things work.

Thanks.
