Hi,
I am trying to build a diagram similar to a UML composite diagram where I want to create connectors similar to assembly connectors in UML.
What I have so far:
* I can create a component and add ports to it.
* I can create a component and add parts to it. Similar to UML, a part has a type, when I type a part with a certain component, the ports (which are semantically inherited through their type) are visualised on the parts in my composite diagram. That is, in the abstract syntax tree (AST) model, the ports are still owned by the component(type). In the AST, parts do not own ports.
* (through the EMF editor) I can create an assembly connector, connecting the parts through their 'inherited' ports. (inherited through their type relationship). Similar to UML this means that you have to indicate the part as well (ref partWithPort in UML)
* I am able to visualise the assembly connector. There is one problem though, I cannot not filter on 'partWithPort'. As a consequence, edges are shown for parts which should not be connected.
Does anyone know a solution for this problem?
Did someone already create a diagram like the UML composite diagram?
btw, attached an example to clarify the case:
clutch, new and gear are parts, typed by resp. Clutch, Clutch and Gear (which are components)
The Clutch component contains one port: ClutchPower
The Gear component contains two ports: GearOuterPower and GearInnerPower.
I have one assembly connector, connecting gear and clutch through GearOuterPower and ClutchPower. (this is correctly shown)
The diagram incorrectly shows a connection between new and gear.

Hi Davy,
Without a sample project it is difficult to analyse your issue, you can
look at UML-Designer project which have a UML composite diagram definition.
If you want to filter edges to be displayed you can use "Semantic
Candidates Expression" or "Precondition" attributes of your edge mapping
in your odesign.
Best Regards.

Hi Esteban,
I looked at the UML-Designer project that you referred to. The UML composite diagram that is in there doesn't seem to allow creating connectors between ports of owned parts(ie ports of roles). This is exactly what I am trying to do.
As you were asking for a sample project, I created a simplified version of my meta-model such that it looks more like the UML meta-model. Of course I simplified a lot here, but you should recognize the resemblance with part of the UML meta-model.
Attached you can find different projects:
fmtc.uml.composite contains the meta-model
fmtc.uml.composite.design contains the viewpoint specification model
fmtc.uml.composite.example contains the example model that uses the viewpoint
kind regards,
Davy
