[EVL] Validate UML Model from Papyrus [message #1011459]

Hi everyone,

I'm developing a UML Profile using Papyrus and I would like to know if it's possible to validate a UML model that uses my profile using the EVL.
Thanks in advance.

Hi André,

We've worked with Papyrus and Epsilon before (I must admit it was a while ago) so I wouldn't expect any problems with this.

Cheers,
Dimitris

Many thanks for the answer Dimitris.
Do you know if there is any example online that performs such a validation?

Hi André,

I've added a minimal example that demonstrates using EVL to validate a Papyrus UML model on which I've applied the built-in Ecore profile under [1].

Cheers,
Dimitris

Hi Dimitris,

I've written some constraints, but some doubts have arose:

1. In my UML profile I have stereotypes that extend metaclasses like Class or Association. In the context of a stereotype, is it possible to get the metaclass it extends?
2. Or should I use the context of the metaclass and get the stereotype? If this is the case, how can I do it? (I've done it 'self.getAppliedStereotypes()')
3. I'm also using Composite Structure Diagrams. How can I access the classes that compose a certain class? (I've done it with 'self.ownedMember')

Thanks a lot.

Hi Andre,

Apologies for the slow reply. After reading your updated post I understand that you've now solved these problems but please let me know if this is not the case.

Cheers,

Hi Dimitris,

The following question still makes sense or the recommended way to do it, is using the context of the metaclass?

Hi Andre,

#2 looks fine. An alternative might be to use the getExtendedMetaclasses() method of Stereotype.

Cheers,
Dimitris
