The implementation of evaluate in=20
Object org.eclipse.ocl.ecore.QueryImpl.evaluate(Object)=20
breaks the general contract defined in
Object org.eclipse.ocl.Query.evaluate(Object)=20

The bold clause states that the result has to be a defined result type

In my case, resultType is:
org.eclipse.emf.ecore.impl.EClassImpl@1f36af6 (name: Component) =
(instanceClassName: null) (abstract: false, interface: false)

however, I get a result of:
org.eclipse.emf.ecore.impl.DynamicEObjectImpl@7502f6 (eClass: =
org.eclipse.emf.ecore.impl.EClassImpl@15a349 (name: Invalid_Class) =
(instanceClassName: null) (abstract: false, interface: false))

which is not defined.

This should be caught by the implementation. Below the contract as =
specified in the API.

Hi, Jörn, Ed,

Yes, OCL uses the OclInvalid token to indicate failure of evaluation (not
quite an exception object). It is actually defined as the sole instance of
the Invalid class which, in the OCL type system, is a specialization of
every other type and, therefore, by definition conforms to the result type
of the query expression.

Unfortunately, it is not practical to actually implement Invalid as a
dynamic Java class that implements all possible EMF-generated interfaces.

Clients should always first check the result of evaluation using the
OCL::isInvalid(Object) method to see whether it is the OclInvalid.

Please feel free to raise a bug for the Javadoc (a patch would be most
appreciated :-)

HTH,

Christian
