Registering Static Profile - Profile not listed [message #1827250]

Hi,

I created a profile and want to add some of its elements to a Palette and create diagrams with the profile applied as default. I'm not 100% sure if I'm on the right track, but I tried to create a plugin out of my profile by following the "Registering the Generated Static Profile" instructions here https://help.eclipse.org/2020-03/index.jsp

I created an example diagram in the same Papyrus Eclipse application and tested if I registered it correctly with "Apply registered profile". But my profile is not listed among the registered profiles.

I tried it again with a simple profile and the same settings as in the instructions, but it still doesn't work. I repeated it a couple of times. Could someone please check if I missed something? I included the simple profile in the attachments. I use Eclipse 2020-03 (4.15.0)

Maybe my target "platform:/plugin/com.mylanguage.profile/profile/" in the org.eclipse.emf.ecore.uri_mapping extension is not correct? I don't quite understand the rules this one has to follow.

Thank you for your support!

I've checkout your profile and it is well shown in the list of registered profiles (but without an icon, define one, as a missing one might cause undefined behavior). Please keep in mind that you only see your plugin in a 2nd Eclipse instance started from the first or if you install it in your current version.

Some things to improve: remove the profile definitions. They are not needed in case of a static profile (and can cause problems). You don't need the ecore profile, if you fill out the native UML "URI" attribute instead of using the attribute of the EPackage stereotype.

Hello Ansgar,
thank you for your reply!
You're right, it works when I use another instance! I misunderstood the instruction in a way that I should test it in the same instance, I'm sorry.

And thank you very munch for the other tips!
What exactly do you mean by the profile definitions? The whole "mylanguage.profile" folder with di, uml, notation, and genmodel files? I don't want to delete too much :D
And where can I add an icon to the profile? When I search for it the documentation, I can only find how to add icons to stereotypes.

If you select the profile in the model-explorer, the property view should show a tab called "definition".
It shows the definitions and you can delete them there.
Each time you save the profile, Papyrus asks whether to create such a definition - so it's well possible to accidentally create one or more definitions. In case of a static profile, answer "no" to this dialog.

Oh, it's that "In order to apply that profile, it has to be defined" question, now I remember. Thank you for the instruction, I could delete the definitions. :)
