Hi,
im little bit confused im working on a problem for 2 days and wasnt able to resolve it:

Quote:

EvaluationException : Couldn't find property 'type' for type :Services::Operation

the Operation inheritate from a Datatype that contained the element type. i had the same problem with ATL and i solve it by using :

Quote:

out.eSet(out.eClass().getEStructuralFeature('type'),
String);

any ideas why i get this comportement

Hello,

I want to reproduce your problem but i don't know how to. can u tell more about your metamodel? the Operation EClass, it's hierarchy? Can you post your ecore? And your check statement?

hello, some of the things you posted don't fit together - can you try to give me a reduced runnable sample? just a complete ecore file and a check

Hello,

I can reproduce the problem using a "default" workflow.
Could you please file a Bug for it. Don't know if it is a Bug or a Feature (Dynamic EMF Registration of the Reader), but we'll see.

You can get it running anyway when you modifying the stuff (workflow) like this:

(snippets from good old oaw 4.3.1)

	<bean class="org.eclipse.mwe.emf.StandaloneSetup" >
		<platformUri value=".."/>
		<registerEcoreFile value="src/metamodel/metamodel.ecore" />
	</bean>

Isn't org.eclipse.xtend.typesystem.emf just a renaming from oaw?! Wink

Retestet with a 1.0.0M6 Sample and it works anyway (without my modifications)

How do you then start / invoke the checks?

What about registering your subpackages here too?

I did so, it was just a part, all the element validation are working fine, excepet for type, that shows an error, its a little bit confusing.

and what do i need to configure to see the error? which version of mwe do you use?

I remember Wink

But still cannot reproduce the problem the following works perfect for me (using one of the latest xtend 1.0.0 Milestones):

context Entities::Attribute
	ERROR 'an attribute must have a type'
	: 
	this.type.name != null
;

   <extension
         point="org.eclipse.xtend.typesystem.emf.checks">
      <metaModel
            nsURI="www.netfective.com/Entities">
         <checkFile
               path="model/Checks.chk">
         </checkFile>
      </metaModel>
   </extension>

i get as i expect the validation error:

Description	Resource	Path	Location	Type
an attribute must have a type	My.mymm	/test	Unknown	EMF Problem

Hi,

perhaps its due to the fact that i have xtend 0.7.2, where can i find xtend 1.0.0 Milestones so i can update mine. in the eclipse site there is just the 0.7.2 version.

thanks for all

Hi Christian,

I couldnt find some plugins when i update xtend; like org.eclipse.xtend.util.stdlib and org.eclipse.xtend.typesystem.emf, are they taken into considération in the last version?

Hello,

downloaded the RC1 distribution and found the plugins:
- org.eclipse.xtend.util.stdlib 1.0.0.v201005180835
- org.eclipse.xtend.typesystem.emf 1.0.0.v201005180835
So I cannot reproduce your problem.

Hi Christian,

plz it would help me so much if i could de something like:

context Entity::Attribute ERROR 'an attribute must have a type':
this.eClass().getEStructuralFeature('type').name!=null;

java programing insteadof Ocl.

thanks in advance

So why don't you call a java extension then?
but

context Entity::Attribute ERROR 'an attribute must have a type':
this.type.name!=null;

should work anyway.

Quote:

public static boolean val (EClass e)

in my extension file i did :

[QUOTE
boolean referencetype(EClass p):
JAVA com.sms.Messages.val(org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EClass)
;
QUOTE]

but in my check file, it displays an error : that it cannot cast from Entities::Attribute to ecore::EClass

Quote:

context Entities::Attribute ERROR msg('test.0'):
pins((EClass)this)
;

and the Entities::Attribute refering to the MM is an Eclass

how can i solve this please

Hi,

you are mixing MetaMetaModel, MetaModel and Model:

(1) public static boolean val (EClass e)

Here you are working on MetaMetaModel level

(2) context Entities::Attribute ERROR msg('test.0'):
pins((EClass)this)
;

here you define a check rule for a MetaClass = element of the MetaModel
thereby this is a Instance of this MetaClass which is an EObject in Ecore case

Hello,

Don't really understand. You can ask an EObject for it's EClass.
can you please tell what you want to solve? can you post a sample (incorrect) model (just as pseudo-code)

hi, thanks for the reply
i want to verify if an attribute got a type by using a java extension like i posted before

this is an example for my model:

Quote:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<myMM:NamespaceEntities xmi:version="2.0" xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:myMM="http://www.eclipse.org/myMM" xmlns:Entities="www.eclipse.com/Entities">
<ownedPackage>
<ownedMainElement xsi:type="Entities:Class">
<ownedAttribute>
<type name="String"/>
</ownedAttribute>
</ownedMainElement>
</ownedPackage>
</DSLMetaModel:NamespaceEntities>

So cast your attribute to and eobject and ask it for its eclass.
But i Still don't understand why you need java at all !
