Hello,

I have an EOL module and I want to call it from (.etl) file before the transformation in the pre { } .

Is there any way to do that .

Thanks,

Hi Taghreed,

The recommended way to do this would be to define an ANT workflow [1] and call your EOL program before your ETL transformation.

Hello,
I have read the chapter in the book and the articles [1] but I couldn't do it ,is there any example shows how to create ANT workflow from scratch so I will be able to call EOL module and after that run my transformation ?

Thanks very much,
Taghreed.

Hello Dimitris,
I am able now to build ANT file but I am still facing a problem . I am using a model ( ModelOct13/CompletedModelNov24Ph1Ph2ActivityGraph.uml ) which I built using Papyrus so I am using Metamodel URI http://www.eclipse.org/uml2/5.0.0/UML
My question is what is the path for UML metamodel.

The following is The part that has a problem :
<project default="main">

<target name="loadModels">
<epsilon.emf.register file="org.eclipse.uml2.uml/model/UML.ecore" /> 
<epsilon.emf.loadModel
name="UML"
read="true"
store="false"
metamodeluri="http://www.eclipse.org/uml2/5.0.0/UML"
modelfile="/ModelOct13/CompletedModelNov24Ph1Ph2ActivityGraph.uml"
/>
The error that I got is
C:\Users\tegotamimi\Desktop\eclipse-epsilon-1.2-win32-x86_64\workspace\TraceabilityExample\launchAlltask.xml:19: File C:\Users\tegotamimi\Desktop\eclipse-epsilon-1.2-win32-x86_64\workspace\TraceabilityExample\org.eclipse.uml2.uml\model\UML.ecore doesn't exist

Can you please help me .

Taghreed.

Hi Taghreed,

You can omit the <emf.register .../> task as the UML metamodel is pre-registered.

Hello,
I have changed my ANT file .Now its seems that the ANT file can access my TraceabilityFeb3.etl file and starts executing the rules but I got error says
Epsilon.etl - TraceabilityFeb3.etl] EXCEPTION: Type 'UML!Model' not found ,I don't know why even though this rule is working properly when I run TraceabilityFeb3.etl

Can you please find the attached file and advise me .

Hello ,

Sorry for confusing you.
I fixed the whole errors and finally I am able now to build ANT successfully .I am giving initial value to( In Partition) attribute in control flow element in my source model (UML) using EOL and then run the ETL file .
But I cannot see the effect of executing EOL file and etl file when I execute ANT file even though when I execute them independently(without ANT) they are working fine .Do I have to include any commit command ???
By the way I initialize store to true.

Can you please help me.
Minimal example was attached.
Thanks,
Taghreed.

Hi Taghreed,

You should set store="true" in your epsilon.emf.loadModel task.

Yes I did that but I couldnot see the target file and also I checked the UML file the values didn't change.

Any new ideas.
Thanks

Hi Taghreed,

A minimal example [1] is then due I guess.

Hello Dimitris,
The version of Epsilon that I am using 1.3.0.201509290942
Instructions for reproducing the problem:
Run /TraceabilityExample/Anttestlaunch.launch for ANT build file ( /TraceabilityExample/Anttestlaunch.xml)
Using ANT file I want to run EOL module to set up some values in the source file and then run the transformation (.etl)
Source model instance is /ModelOct13/CompletedModelNov24Ph1Ph2ActivityGraph.uml
Metamodel for target file is /lqnmodel/lqnmodel.ecore
/TraceabilityExample/AntwithoutTraceabilityApril11.etl to run the transformation
/ScriptingUMLXMLFile/ScriptingUMLXML.eol to set up InPartition attribute in the /ModelOct13/CompletedModelNov24Ph1Ph2ActivityGraph.uml

When I run ANT build file no target model generated and the values in CompletedModelNov24Ph1Ph2ActivityGraph.uml didn't change ,I think etl and EOL didn't run properly though the ANT file even though they run properly when I run them separately.

Thanks,
Taghreed.

Hi Taghreed,

The modelFile of the lqnmodel does not seem to be correct. Replacing it with modelFile="targetlqn.model" seems to be producing a target model in your TraceabilityExample project. I found your example somewhat challenging to reproduce (e.g. I had to copy-paste your UML model from the ModelOct13 project, I couldn't find "ScriptingUMLXMLFile/ScriptingUMLXML.eol", and I have no idea what the "InPartition" attribute refers to in a 34KB model). Investing a bit more effort in producing a genuinely minimal example (including minimal sample models) contained within a single project would help a lot in the future.

Cheers,
Dimitris

Hello Dimitris,

I have had to use lqnmodel because I am using it in my rules as <rightParameterType> and I got error when I changed that in ANT build file .I sent you a new minimal example which includes :
AntBuild folder which has
Metamodel folder has /TraceabilityExample/AntBuildfile/Metamodels/lqnmodel.ecore
Model folder has /TraceabilityExample/AntBuildfile/Models/CompletedModelNov24Ph1Ph2ActivityGraph.uml
/TraceabilityExample/AntBuildfile/Anttestlaunch.xml
/TraceabilityExample/AntBuildfile/TraceabilityExample Anttestlaunch.xml.launch
/TraceabilityExample/AntBuildfile/AntwithoutTraceabilityApril11.etl
/TraceabilityExample/AntBuildfile/ScriptingUMLXML.eol
targetmodel is an instance of the metamodel lqnmodel.ecore and it will be generated after running AntwithoutTraceabilityApril11.etl

Also I sent a word file which has a picture for In partition attribute that I need to give it a value .

Hopefully this will be more clear and sorry for confusing .
Taghreed.

Hello ,
I have no problem no ,I figure out what was the problem .I had duplicate copies of the same file and also I had to check the box in the configuration to refresh the project:)

Sorry for that.

Thanks,
Taghreed.
