EObject type in Epsilon [message #1723595] Tue, 16 February 2016 12:21 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Hi,

I want to know how I could set the eType of an EReference to EObject by EOL instruction.
I try something like this:
ref.eType = Ecore!EObject;
However, it is incorrect.
I also want to check that whether an object is type of EObject or not but the below code is not correct:
...object.isTypeOf(EObject)...

Bests,
Leila

Hi Leila,

The following should do the trick.

ref.eType = EClass.all.selectOne(c|c.name="EObject");
...
object.isKindOf(EObject); // EObject is an abstract class


Cheers,
Dimitris

Hi Dimitris,

Because I use two metamodels, I try something like this:
ref.eType = Ecore!EClass.all.selectOne(c|c.name="EObject");
There is not any error, but the eType of ref will be empty. It is shown that there is no any EClass with name "EObject"!
My metamodels are similar to your paper:

Hi Leila,

Could you please provide a minimal example [1] that we can use to reproduce this?

Cheers,

Hi Dimitris,

The minimal Example can be found in the attached file:

an ETL transformation from GeneralTrace to Ecore.

The output of the transformation should be generated in SpecialTraceMetamodel.ecore

My question is about line 111 in the ETL program.

Hi Leila,

I see. I think that you need to add Ecore.ecore to your transformation as a third model (e.g. EcoreEcore). To do this you can select the "Registered EMF EPackage" model type in the "Select type of model" configuration dialog, set the name of the model to EcoreEcore and type/select the following metamodel URI: http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore. Line 111 of your code should then be modified as follows:

ref.eType := EcoreEcore!EClass.all.selectOne(c|c.name = "EObject");


Cheers,
Dimitris

Hi Dimitris,

Thank you very much.
Your suggested trick solved the problem.

Hi,
How can I pass a registered EMF EPackage (Ecore) to ETL module as a model programmatically?

Hi Leila,

You need to create an instance of org.eclipse.epsilon.emc.emf.EmfMetaModel, configure it and then add it to module.getContext().getModelRepository() as usual.

Thanks Dimitris.

I write the below code to create an EMFMetaModel:
protected EmfMetaModel createEmfMetaModel(String name, String metamodelUri,
			boolean readOnLoad, boolean storeOnDisposal) 
			throws EolModelLoadingException, URISyntaxException {
		
	EmfMetaModel emfMetaModel = new EmfMetaModel(name,metamodelUri);
	emfMetaModel.setReadOnLoad(readOnLoad);
	emfMetaModel.setStoredOnDisposal(storeOnDisposal);
	return emfMetaModel;
	}

However, I don't know how I can access the ecore metamodel uri.

Leila

Hi Leila,

You can access it through EcorePackage.eINSTANCE.getNsURI().

Thanks Dimitris.
I have called the createEmfMetaModel in this way:
models.add(createEmfMetaModel("EcoreM",EcorePackage.eINSTANCE.getNsURI(),true,false));

and it causes errors:

Hi Leila,

The problem seems to be that you're not calling the load() method of your instance of EmfMetaModel. Adding a call to load() seems to be doing the trick.

protected EmfMetaModel createEmfMetaModel(String name, String metamodelUri,
		boolean readOnLoad, boolean storeOnDisposal) 
				throws EolModelLoadingException, URISyntaxException {
		
	EmfMetaModel emfMetaModel = new EmfMetaModel(name,metamodelUri);
	emfMetaModel.setReadOnLoad(readOnLoad);
	emfMetaModel.setStoredOnDisposal(storeOnDisposal);
	emfMetaModel.load();
	return emfMetaModel;
}


Cheers,
Dimitris
