There is an OCL invariant in my profile:
let standardId : String = getValue(getAppliedStereotype('EECProfile::EECDataModel'), 'standardId').oclAsType(String) in
let ss : Package = allOwningPackages()->any(getAppliedStereotype('EECProfile::NamespaceSubset') <> null) in
standardId <> null and standardId.size() > 0 and ss <> null
implies
standardId.substring(1, 8) = ss.oclAsType(Package).extension_EECDataModel.standardId.concat('-')


It works fine in Rational Software Architect. But Eclipse OCL parsers says:
Unrecognized variable: (extension_EECDataModel)

extension_EECDataModel is an association between uml:Package and EECDataModel (uml:Stereotype):
    <packagedElement xmi:type="uml:Stereotype" xmi:id="_QhZAwPQoEeK4sawTC9jIzA" name="EECDataModel">
      <ownedAttribute xmi:id="_xnYL0P2MEeK7ttZiuYmhaw" name="base_Package" association="_xnWWoP2MEeK7ttZiuYmhaw">

    </packagedElement>


Is there a work around to add a support for such associations? It's very strange that it works in RSA... I think it use Eclipse OCL too.

HI

Which Eclipse OCL, which RSA? RSA can be quite some way behind.

Which Eclipse UML?

Where is the useable repro?

Eclipse OCL and UML from latest Luna milestone.

RSA 7.5, 8.5, 9.

The model is here: https://github.com/AresEkb/uml2xsd/tree/master/model

EECProfile.profile.uml - profile
TTDataModel.uml - model

Hi

OK. I've got the model (and no-EMFText errors), but no idea how to
reproduce your problem. You didn't even tell me where the invariant is.

I presume some form of interactive validate/evaluation would demonstrate
the issue.

Have another read of: https://wiki.eclipse.org/OCL/ForumNetiquette

Hi

Excuse me for non-netiquette. To reproduce the error you can
1) open TTDataModel.uml in Eclipse (with UML Model Editor),
2) select any object with a EECDataModel stereotype (for example first package owned by the Model - BusinessAreas)
3) open OCL console (Context Menu -> OCL -> Show OCL Console)
4) copy/paste/execute the OCL-constraint:
let standardId : String = getValue(getAppliedStereotype('EECProfile::EECDataModel'), 'standardId').oclAsType(String) in
let ss : Package = allOwningPackages()->any(getAppliedStereotype('EECProfile::NamespaceSubset') <> null) in
standardId <> null and standardId.size() > 0 and ss <> null
implies
standardId.substring(1, 8) = ss.oclAsType(Package).extension_EECDataModel.standardId.concat('-')


After that I get the error:
Unrecognized variable: (extension_EECDataModel)


Also you can try to run uml2xsd package as a Java Application from Eclipse. It will try to validate the constraints programmatically and will show the same error. uml2xsd depends on https://github.com/AresEkb/EMFTextXPath2 . I think EMFText itself isn't needed.


The constraint is owned by a EECDataModel stereotype in EECProfile.profile.uml. The name of the owned rule is EEC702.

Hi

Thanks for the repro. Long overdue for something horribly complicated
that isn't UML itself.

---

A problem for Pivot OCL is that you reuse TTDataModel as a fourth level
package inside a first level package.

This is probably illegal but certainly poor practice. Once UML and OCL
WFRs have been refined it may be more than probably.

The Pivot OCL merges same-NsURI packages, and in the absence of NsURIs
merges same-named packages.

---

Beyond that I suspect that the problem is that Eclipse UML 5.0.0 with
UML 2.5 support has changed some namespaces. I'm investigating.

Hi

I think you are getting your metalevels confused.

No it's an Extension to the BusinessAreas type whose (meta)type is Package.

which is a Package not a BusinessAreas

Since this is an extension to BusinessAreas not to Package.

Thanks!

I've renamed TTDataModel package to distinguish it from the model itself. And it works in OCL 4.1.1.v20140210-1137 and UML 4.1.2.v20140202-2055!

(I don't insist on this point, but I don't think that it's wrong to have multiple same-named packages within one model. It's only wrong to have multiple indistinguishable objects within one namespace (same-named packages owned by one package, same-named properties owned by one class, ...). Maybe packages must be merged by a fully qualified names?)

But it still doesn't work in OCL and UML 5.

Is it wrong to use extension_EECDataModel or is there something broken in UML and OCL 5? What is a right way to access the extension? According to your last message uml:Package doesn't have an extension_EECDataModel association and instead of
pkg.extension_EECDataModel.standardId
I should write:
pkg.getValue(getAppliedStereotype('EECProfile::EECDataModel'), 'standardId').oclAsType(String)

But the former works in UML/OCL 4 and also here is an example of an extension_* usage (lines 2397, 2404, ...):
http://www1.unece.org/cefact/platform/download/attachments/44204303/Specification_UMM_Base_Module_V2.0_TechnicalSpecification.pdf

And also I think that once extension_EECDataModel is defined in a model it should be accessible somehow.
