[EOL] Type not found when using registered EPackage [message #1386831]

Hi,

I'm having a little(?) problem running an eol script. I have a meta model (standard emf stuff) that is required for some computations, so I don't have an instance of this meta model to be loaded by an eol script.

I tried to load that modle via "registered epackage", but this results in

"Type 'XXX' not found" exception. If I create an instance of my model and load as an emf model everything is fine, but this would be not great for my purpose. So my question, how can I create elements with having only used the registered package?

thanks in advance for help.

Hi,

Un-ticking the "Read on load" option in the model configuration dialog should do the trick.

Cheers,

Hi,

I tried already but it didn't work Sad

Nevertheless, I've solved it like this for my purpose: Selecting the emf model I would like to validate and in the same dialog add the additional metamodel to the list of metamodels and it works fine.

Thanks for your fast support.

Edit: Another question or idea: In my usecase it would be great to guard fixes, such that they are not displayed if the guard is not satsified.

Sorry for highjacking my own thread, but I'm confused with "include external references". My evl script can read all elements of the external models that are referenced inside my model. But when modifing e.g. the name of an element inside the referenced model it is changed but not persisted in the real model file on disk. Is this intended behaviour or some kind of "bug"? I'm using the latest stable version of epsilon with eclipse 4.3 and java 8 on arch linux.

Hi Frederik,

This is the expected behaviour - only the "main" resource is saved by default. To save all resources of model M, you could add the following lines to the "post" part of your EVL file.

for (resource in M.resource.resourceSet.resources) {
resource.save(null);
}

Cheers,
Dimitris
