I am new in Eclipse environnement and the section describing use of "External Java Action" is not clear for me. Does anyone has a more detailled example to follow?

Thanks.

Hi Patrick,

I suggest you to install the Sirius sample feature from the Sirius
update-site
(http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/milestones/1.0.0M7/luna).

Then import as “Plug-ins and Fragments” the plugin
“org.eclipse.sirius.sample.ecore.design” into your workspace. There is
an example of external java action within the ecore.odesign (Design >
Entities > Default > Section Dynamic > Tool Dynamic instance).
This external java action is declared with the
“org.eclipse.sirius.externalJavaAction” extension point.

Regards,

Florian

First, in tab Extensions in MANIFEST file of your project, you declare extension point org.eclipse.sirius.externalJavaAction (via button Add...), specify the class (clic to class* the class will be created in folder src automatically), id, image,...
Second, you specify behavior in the class specified.
Final, you use the Id in External Java Action.

Hi everyone,

I'm also looking for an example to learn how to use external java actions however the link for the sirius sample feature is not working anymore.... can anyone tell me where I could get the example from? Or is there a different example that I could use?

Thank you

Hello,

In the documentation about external java actions[1], there are 3 standard ones that are presented. You can find these actions in plugins "org.eclipse.sirius" and "org.eclipse.sirius.ui".

Steve

Hi Steve,

thank you very much for your answer. I managed to integrate the standard ones as tool in my diagram. However, can you tell me where I can open the codes of these standard actions and where the sirius model gets them from? I searched in the folders but I couldn't find it.....

Thank you!

Kind regards,

Harald

Hi,

The source code for the two standard actions and their common superclass can be found at https://git.eclipse.org/c/sirius/org.eclipse.sirius.git/tree/plugins/org.eclipse.sirius/src/org/eclipse/sirius/business/api/action.

Hi,

thank you for the quick response. But how do I get the code from the link you've send me? Should the shown path also be in my eclipse/sirius folders? (I can't find it there though...)

Kind regards,

Harald

Hi,

There was a formatting problem on my message, the correct URL is: https://git.eclipse.org/c/sirius/org.eclipse.sirius.git/tree/plugins/org.eclipse.sirius/src/org/eclipse/sirius/business/api/action

Simply click on any of the 3 classes there to see their code. It's a view of the Git repository of the Sirius sources; if you want to get them locally you'll have to clone the repo.

Hi,

thank you for your quick help! This helps me to understand how to program an external java action and how to use the ones out of the repository as a tool in my odesign.

I was now trying to set up an java action on my own and use it in my sirius diagram however I don't really understand where in the project I have to implement the action so that I can call/use it as a tool in my odesign.
If I would just want to set up one of the standard actions by myself (e.g. PrintInterpreterVariableAction), where would I have to copy paste the code so that I can call it from the odesign?

Is there a step by step tutorial on that somewhere?

Sorry for being so bad at this... I really appreciate your help!

Kind regards,

Harald
