Create the updatesite [message #1674599]

Hi Bob,

I made changes to the metamodel, but it does not know how to reference these changes in the modeler.

How do I modify the pom.xml to grab my bpmn2 metamodel jars instead of the ones from the bpmn2 update site?

best regards

I'm assuming that you want to build your own update site for downloading BPMN2 Modeler, is that correct? In that case, you'll need to edit the parent pom.xml and change the <url> for the eclipse-bpmn2 repository to point to your own bpmn2 metamodel update site, here:


	<repositories>
		...
		<repository>
			<id>eclipse-bpmn2</id>
			<url>http://my.bpmn2.metamodel.update.site/</url>
			<layout>p2</layout>
			<snapshots>
				<enabled>true</enabled>
			</snapshots>
			<releases>
				<enabled>true</enabled>
			</releases>
		</repository>

HTH,
Bob

Thank you Bob,

That's right. I did what you suggested, the problem is that when I install my plugin in a new eclipse was not possible to find the classes that I modified.
As if he had not finding the metamodel. Do you have any idea what might be going on?

I am using the bintray to store the update site.

Metamodel: http://dl.bintray.com/ledes/bpl-framework
Modeler: http://dl.bintray.com/ledes/bplframework-modeler

best regards

Ah, right. I forgot that there's an ant build step that adds dependent repository URIs for the metamodel and BPEL to the generated content.xml file of the update site (see the content.jar file in your update site).

You'll need to edit the <platform>-sites.properties file in org.eclipse.bpmn2.modeler.updatesite for the platform version you are building. I'm guessing that you're targeting Eclipse Kepler, so edit the kepler-sites.properties, and change the line

associate.sites=http://download.eclipse.org/modeling/mdt/bpmn2/updates/milestones/S20130822/,http://download.eclipse.org/bpel/site/

to this:

associate.sites=http://dl.bintray.com/ledes/bpl-framework,http://download.eclipse.org/bpel/site/

and you should be good to go Smile

Cheers,
Bob

thank you for fast response.

Still giving error (The error happens when I click the "Finish" button to create a new Process Diagram). I added the repository and changed the associate.sites.

I'm running the commands:

"mvn clean install" in the metamodel

and

"mvn clean install -P platform-kepler" in the modeler

Any other command that I have to run?

best regards,

Marcelo

The initial error appears to be related to a new type you've created (VariabilitySpecification) Most likely there's something wrong with your bpmn2 ecore. At least this proves that you are now installing your bpmn2 model instead of the one at eclipse Wink

If possible, can you send me the ecore and I'll take a quick look to see if there's anything obvious. Please feel free to use my email bbrodt@redhat.com if you don't want to share with the entire world.

Hi Bob

tank you.

The Ecore is attached.

Observation: If I install the metamodel (using update site) before installing the modeler works without giving error.

Hi Marcelo,

The ecore looks OK to me, clearly there's something more going on here than I can see without having your entire plugin in front of me. I'm afraid you'll have to debug into the code to figure out what's going on. Start with the performFinish() method of your new file wizard and see where it leads.
