Hello,
What is the best way to get enumeration literals while using UML2 =
models?
a) For enumeration literals, the actual literal value, seems to be an =
"ownedElement" of type "LiteralValue" under the EnumerationLiteral =
object.=20
This is what I'm doing:

Iterator iRes =3D res.getAllContents();
while (iRes.hasNext())
{
EObject obj =3D (EObject) iRes.next();
if (obj instanceof org.eclipse.uml2.uml.Enumeration)
{ =20
org.eclipse.uml2.uml.Enumeration enumeration =3D =
(org.eclipse.uml2.uml.Enumeration) obj;
System.out.println (">>>Enumeration: " + =
enumeration.getQualifiedName());
Iterator<org.eclipse.uml2.uml.EnumerationLiteral> iLiterals =3D =
enumeration.getOwnedLiterals().iterator();

while (iLiterals.hasNext())
{
org.eclipse.uml2.uml.EnumerationLiteral literal =3D =
iLiterals.next();
System.out.println (" " + literal.getName());
Iterator<org.eclipse.uml2.uml.Element> iValue =3D =
literal.getOwnedElements().iterator();
while (iValue.hasNext())
{
org.eclipse.uml2.uml.Element elem =3D iValue.next();
if (elem instanceof org.eclipse.uml2.uml.LiteralString)
{
System.out.println (" Value: " + =
((org.eclipse.uml2.uml.LiteralString)elem).getValue());
}
}
}
}

It seems I am only picking up any "OwnedElement" which is of the type =
LiteralString (for example, should I only ever expect 1 owned element of =
this type?). Is this the best way of getting at the value of the =
literal?

b) In the same token, I can go through a resource, picking out all the =
Classes, and for each get their attributes (through the getAttributes() =
call, which gets an Elist of "Property"s) At this point, however, the =
getDataType() method on Property, always returns null. Why is that? How =
can i get their datatypes?

Thank you for your help.
