[Xpand / Xtend] Recognizing custom UML Profile [message #639025]

Hi,

I have created a really simple uml profile and a uml model which uses this profile (uml2 3.0.0).

I think I am loading the profile correctly in my workflow, but I do not know what I have to do so that the Xpand and Xtend editor will recognize my profile and its stereotypes.

I am not using packages in my uml models (neither in the sample.uml nor in the Forms.profile.uml). I guess that does not have to do anything with it, does it?
Both uml files are not within my Xpand project, but in their own projects.

I am using eclipse helios and I create my uml models with papyrus.

Where in my Xpand project do I have to add my Profile so the editors will recognize my profile (e.g. so that I can import that profile)?

I dont think just loading it in the workflow (see below) will do it, right?

I searched the forums and the internet. Either I haven't found the answer yet, or it should have worked like that.
Since I do not know what to do, I hope someone here can help me out.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<workflow>
	<property name="model" value="GoogleFormsUML/Sample.uml" />
	<property name="profile" value="UMLProfiles/Forms.profile.uml" />
	<property name="src-gen" value="src-gen" />
	
	
	
	<!-- set up EMF for standalone execution -->
	<bean class="org.eclipse.emf.mwe.utils.StandaloneSetup" >

	<!-- instantiate metamodel -->

	<!-- Profile Model -->

	</bean>

	<component class="org.eclipse.emf.mwe.utils.Reader">

		<modelSlot value="model" />
	</component>

		</outlet>
	</component>
</workflow>

Hi

here is a uml sample workflow for xpand

<workflow>
	
	<bean class="org.eclipse.xtend.typesystem.uml2.Setup" standardUML2Setup="true" />
	
	<bean class="org.eclipse.emf.mwe.utils.StandaloneSetup" platformUri=".." />
	
	<component class="org.eclipse.emf.mwe.utils.Reader">
		<uri value="platform:/resource/xpand.uml.profile.sample/src/model/test.uml" />
		<modelSlot value="model" />
	</component>
	
	<component class="org.eclipse.emf.mwe.utils.DirectoryCleaner">
		<directory value="src-gen" />
	</component>
	
	
	<component class="org.eclipse.xpand2.Generator">
		<metaModel class="org.eclipse.xtend.typesystem.uml2.profile.ProfileMetaModel">
			<profile value="platform:/resource/xpand.uml.profile.sample/src/model/test.profile.uml" />
		</metaModel>
		<metaModel class="org.eclipse.xtend.typesystem.uml2.UML2MetaModel" />
		<expand value="template::Template::main FOR model" />
		<outlet path="src-gen" >
			<postprocessor class="org.eclipse.xpand2.output.JavaBeautifier" />
		</outlet>
	</component>
	

</workflow>

to get the editor running you have to enable uml profiles in your generator projects xtend/xpand properties. the files should be on the classpath.

Hi,

sorry that I did not reply sooner, but due to some stuff I couldn't get back to this project until now.

After putting the profile in my src folder and activating the uml2 Profile everything works fine.

Thank you very much.
