Hi everybody,

i have some questions about UML OCL integration.

I want to define constraints on an UML2 model, transform them to an ecore model using UML2Ecore transformation and have them available in the generated EMF code.
What is more i want to define the constraints for UML in a sperate file using the complete ocl. Is this possible with MDT-OCL

Could you please provide me any information or places to look at how to proceed on that.

Regards Ambros

Hi Ambros

[Please use the OCL newsgroup for OCL queries]

The Indigo release (currently at RC4) of Eclipse (MDT) OCL has an
additional Editors and Examples feature in which you will find

A Complete OCL editor that can import a *.uml file as the meta-model
definition. (Associations and States and Messages do not
work yet; just the Ecore equivalent class-like facilities.)

An OCLinEcore editor that can edit an Ecore file with embedded OCL. If
you have *.uml with embedded OCL do a UML2Ecore, then edit
with OCLinEcore, the old genmodel annotations are transformed to the new
delegate annotations faciloitainmg dynamic models.

See Help Contents. (There is twice as much OCL Documentation content on
Indigo as Helios).

Generation of direct Java by genmodel (rather than interpreted) is
targetted for an intermediate release before Juno.

Regards
