Hi,
Has anyone ever tried to do a standalone application with UML2?
I tried but the information is not sufficient. Something essential is
missing and the application does not do very well.
The examples are also only plugins.
Could anyone give a real Howto for a standalone application please?
Thanks for every reply.
Günther
PS: Yes, I read the FAQ!

Hi Ed,
Yes, this was my first try with this configuration.
This does also not work.
This thing is hopeless, really.
I'm using uml2 in version 2.1.1 and EMF 2.3.2 downloaded last week.
Perhaps these releases don't work with each other, I don't know.
something scary happens every time.
Bye Günther
PS: Have a look at the other threads, there is an example code and model.

Günther,
Perhaps there are missing magical incantations. The beauty of OSGi is
that it allows us to support registrations to configure the environment
declaratively. When running standalone, none of that is available and
all registrations must be done the old and rotten way. If you
described/showed exactly what you tried and described the details of
what's failing, someone can help you. And then you could update the
wiki with your experience so the next person doesn't have to discover
the same issues.

I take you are referring to the UML2 FAQ? The EMF FAQ has several
questions around using EMF in standalone Java applications, you should
read it too:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php?title=EMF/FAQ
Just search for the word "standalone".
The UML2 FAQ is not great in that it suggests you hard code the location
of the org.eclipse.uml2.uml.resource which is not a good idea (as it
changes from build to build). There is definitely room for improvement
there, but other than that, I would expect it to work.

Could you provide more details?
Cheers,
Rafael

When I load the .uml file, it does not recognize a profile application node.
When I load it from a URI ( which finally is the same as above) which I
got it from the Classloader.getResource() it recognizes the profile
application, but then it has problems with the stereotypes (I have a
hole thread with problems committed on this problem).
I see that the .eResource() returns null for the uml type but it should not.
I have no idea and I'm finally switching to a plugin project.
Hope in future releases this would be better!!!!!

Rafael,
The UML2 FAQ is a wiki... so if there's something you feel could be
improved, why not change it? ;)
