Hi everyone,

I want to define an XPand template for a rule which is defined as follows
in XText:
----------------------------------------------------------
import "http://q-impress.eu/samm/staticstructure" as refn_staticstructure

..
..
Entity returns refn_core::Entity:
(NamedEntity | Connector | EndPoint | HardwareDescriptor)
;

NamedEntity returns refn_core::NamedEntity:
ComponentType | Type
;
..
..

PrimitiveComponent returns refn_staticstructure::PrimitiveComponent:
'PrimitiveComponent' id=STRING ':' name=STRING '{'
//parent attrib(s)
'doc:' documentation=STRING';'
//class specific attributes
'reqd:' (required+=InterfacePort)* ';'
'prov:'(provided+=InterfacePort)* ';'
'operBehv:' (OperationBehaviour+=OperationBehaviour)* ';'
'compTypeBehv:' (componentTypeBehaviour=ComponentTypeBehaviour)? ';'
'sink:' (sink+=EventPort)* ';'
'source:' (source+=EventPort)* ';'
'}'

;
-----------------------------------------------------------
The rule refers to an existing external metamodel EClass.

Now, I've defined a concrete metamodel for this grammar as:
-----------------------------------------------------------
PrimitiveComponent "pr_01":"pr_a"{
doc:"csabcb,am";
reqd:;
prov:;
operBehv:;
compTypeBehv:;
sink:;
source:;
}
-----------------------------------------------------------

I want to run the XPand generator for the above model.
My Xpand template is as follows:

-----------------------------------------------------------
«IMPORT edifice»;

«EXTENSION templates::Extensions»

«DEFINE def_outer FOR NamedEntity»
«EXPAND def_inner FOREACH elems.typeSelect(PrimitiveComponent)»
«ENDDEFINE»

«DEFINE def_inner FOR PrimitiveComponent»
«FILE name+".edifice" »
PrimitiveComponent «id»: «name»{
doc: «documentation»;
}

«ENDFILE»
«ENDDEFINE»
-----------------------------------------------------------

XPand workflow is as follows:

<workflow>


<bean class="org.eclipse.emf.mwe.utils.StandaloneSetup" platformUri="..">
<registerGeneratedEPackage

<expand value="templates::Template::def_outer FOR NamedEntity"/>
<genPath value="src-gen"/>
</component>

</workflow>
------------------------------------------------------------ ----

But the workflow shows the following error when I run it:

I'm surprised why it's unable to determine the rule that tht references!!

Can anyone suggest??

Thanks.

Hi Durga,

in the workflow file ...

>
> <component class="org.eclipse.xpand2.Generator">
> <metaModel
> class="org.eclipse.xtend.typesystem.emf.EmfRegistryMetaModel "/>
> <expand value="templates::Template::def_outer FOR NamedEntity"/>

.... it must be

<expand value="templates::Template::def_outer FOR model"/>

instead.

Because the MWEReader by default makes the loaded model under that name
('model') available to other components.

The <expand/> element is actually an invocation, so you have to provide
a value to pass in, which is typically a model, which has been parsed
previously.
So the syntax is
<expand value="qualified::name::to::Template FOR someExpression"/>

Hope that helps,
Sven

Hello Sven

As u advised, I made the necessary changes, but that doesn't still help.

My workflow is now:

------------------------------------------------------------ -
<workflow>


<bean class="org.eclipse.emf.mwe.utils.StandaloneSetup" platformUri="..">

<expand value="templates::Template::defn_PrimitiveDataType FOR model"/>
<genPath value="src-gen"/>
</component>

</workflow>
------------------------------------------------------------ --

And my XPand template is:

------------------------------------------------------------ --
«EXTENSION templates::Extensions»

«DEFINE def_outer FOR Type»
«EXPAND def_inner FOREACH this.typeSelect(PrimitiveDataType)»
«ENDDEFINE»

«DEFINE defn_PrimitiveDataType FOR PrimitiveDataType»

PrimitiveDatatype «id»: «name»{
doc: «documentation»;

«REM»
operBehv: «EXPAND defn_OperationBehaviour FOREACH OperationBehaviour»
compTypeBehv: «EXPAND defn_componentTypeBehaviour FOREACH
ComponentTypeBehaviour»
sink: «EXPAND defn_sink FOREACH EventPort»
source: «EXPAND defn_source FOREACH EventPort»
«ENDREM»
}

«ENDFILE»
«ENDDEFINE»

------------------------------------------------------------ ----------

But the error that I get when I run my workflow is:

It seems it's unable to find the definition in template file !!

Do I need to explicitly import the metamodel inspite of registering them
in the workflow ? I tried importing the metamodel even, but that doesn't
work..

any suggestions..

Thanks.

Durga

Hi Durga,

you need to import the namespace of the used types in your Xpand template.
Please add the following as the first line in your Xpand file.

<<IMPORT datatypes>>

Don't you get error markers in the template?

You need to add such an import for each used EPackage. In Xpand we use
the name attribute of an EPackage to compute qualified names of the
contained types.

Hope that helps,
Sven

Hi Durga!

You are specifying

<expand value="templates::Template::def_outer FOR NamedEntity"/>

after FOR you name a type name, but Xpand expects an object of that
type. After FOR follows usually the name of the output slot in which a
reader component, here MweReader, writes. By default this is 'model'. So try
<expand value="templates::Template::def_outer FOR model"/>

Hi Durga!

Also the log message says

This contradicts. I think you did not post the correct workflow. From what I read from the console output the package qualifier 'template::' is
missing in your expand value.
<expand value="templates::Template::defn_PrimitiveDataType FOR model"/>
Is just fine, and console log should print:
Generator: generating 'templates::Template::defn_PrimitiveDataType FOR model' => []

Kind regards,

Hi Karsten

Ya, Actually I was making the mistake of ' FOR somethingelse', which Sven
pointed out & I modified accordingly.

However, it seems really strange that the following workflow doesn't work:
____________________________________________________________ _________
<component class="org.eclipse.xpand2.Generator">
<metaModel class="org.eclipse.xtend.typesystem.emf.EmfMetaModel">
<metaModelFile
value="platform:/resource/eu.qimpress.samm/model/samm.ecore "/>
</metaModel>
<expand value="templates::Template::defn_PrimitiveComponent FOR model"/>
..
..
____________________________________________________________ _________

But the following workflow works:
____________________________________________________________ _________

<component class="org.eclipse.xpand2.Generator">
<metaModel class="org.eclipse.xtend.typesystem.emf.EmfMetaModel">
<metaModelPackage value="eu.qimpress.samm.datatypes.DatatypesPackage" />
</metaModel>
<metaModel class="org.eclipse.xtend.typesystem.emf.EmfMetaModel">
<metaModelPackage value="eu.qimpress.samm.behaviour.BehaviourPackage" />
</metaModel>
<metaModel class="org.eclipse.xtend.typesystem.emf.EmfMetaModel">
<metaModelPackage
value=" eu.qimpress.samm.deployment.targetenvironment.Targetenvironm entPackage "
/>
</metaModel>
<metaModel class="org.eclipse.xtend.typesystem.emf.EmfMetaModel">
<metaModelPackage
value="eu.qimpress.samm.deployment.hardware.HardwarePackage " />
</metaModel>
<expand value="templates::Template::defn_PrimitiveComponent FOR model"/>
..
..
____________________________________________________________ __________

That is instead of specifying the entire metamodel file in just one step,
we have to rather specify the Packages in the metamodel file.

So, I'm just continuing using the second approach.It's quite surprising,
Since
the first approach is actually suggested in references.

Thanks a lot, still for all your help.

Hi,

hive used the documented feature with the metaModelFile and this worked
fine for me - what is the exception you get?
