OCL console evaluate on M1 [message #58795]

Hi all,

I am extending OCL with my own metamodel, aiming at using the OCL console
with it. Now I discovered, that the OCL interpreter example does not
support evaluation at modeling level M1 (only parsing), which I need badly
for my project.
Is there a specific reason for this?
I tried to just replace the Code at the case distinction of the modeling
level in OCLConsolePage.evaluate() at case: M1 with the one from case: M2.
Unfortunatly this always returns false.
Help would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers David

Hi, David,

There is no specific reason; the interpreter is just an example.

There is room for some contributions, here, if you are interested in
working on them:

- the Ecore editor can create "dynamic instances" of an EClass.
It would be nice to evaluate by evaluating M1 expressions
on them
- the OCL interpreter already supports evaluation of M1 expressions
on UML InstanceSpecifications. Would be nice to support that in
the OCL console example
- for instance models of Ecore or UML metamodels, the console
should be able to evaluate M1 expressions

To get past the problem you are having, start by enabling the evaluation
tracing option in the org.eclipse.ocl/ options in your launch
configuration. This will trace, on System.out, the evaluation of every
OCL expression, sub-exp by sub-exp. This should give some indication of
where the expression is turning south.

HTH,

Christian

Hi Christian,

Thanks a lot for your quick answer.

I'm working on this for a student research project. Unfortunatly I can't
put any extra work in it at the moment, since I have a very tight
schedule. Of course I will contribute everything usefull I implement on my
way.

Do I misinterpret your proposition, by assuming this means using the
org.eclipse.ocl.options.* classes? Unfortunatly I couldn't find an
evaluation tracing option there.

Hi, David,

Sorry, I was referring to the options in the Tracing tab of your Launch
Configuration.

I look forward to your contribution, should you get the opportunity!
