Hello,

I would like to use the stereotype ValidationAction from the utp specification, but I have some troubles specifying a CallOperationAction.

ValidationAction is an extension of CallOperationAction with following constraints:
[ 1 ] The operation of the action must be the setVerdict operation from the arbiter interface.
[ 2 ] The target of the action must refer to a classifier realizing the arbiter interface.
[ 3 ] The argument of the action must be an expression evaluating to a Verdict literal.
[ 4 ] Validation actions can only be used in test cases (i.e., a behavior where «TestCase» is applied to the behavior or its specification).

I did the following:
.)Added a new sequence diagram and applied the stereotype TestCase
.)Added a lifeline and created an ActionExecutionSpecification
.)Set the action of the ActionExecutionSpecification with a new CallOperationAction
.)Applied the stereotype ValidationAction on the new CallOperationACtion
Inside the CallOperationAction:
.)Set the operation with the setVerdict operation from the arbiter interface (Constraint 1)
.)Created for the target a new InputPin and set type with a class realizing the arbiter interface (Constraint 2)
.)Added a ValuePin (containing an expression) to the argument section (Constraint 3)

-> But after I hit ok, Papyrus changes all CallOperation settings:
-)The target is changed to a InputPin, which type is the Arbiter interface and not the class realizing the interface
-)The ValuePin in the argument section is replaced with an InputPin, which type is a Verdict, but the expression, containing which verdict I want to set is lost...

Is this a bug or am I misinterpreting how to correctly set the CallOperationAction?

Thanks in advance!

Regards,
Joe

Hi, Karl,

I would call that a bug. It's OK for a tool to set up a default
CallOperationAction structure, but not to replace elements that you
went out of your way to configure, yourself.

Cheers,

Christian
