XMI model from xtext file [message #799950]

Thu, 16 February 2012 08:54

Hi,

And how can I get an XMI model from a DSL textual file?
You should know that I don't have the .generator project ( I don't have this option when creating an xtext project )

Thanks,

Hi Ismail,

did you try to read the dsl file, resolve the cross references and add
the contents of the parsed resource to a newly created XMI resource? I
assume you are familiar with the EMF resource concept?

Regards,
Sebastian

Well, I read a little bit about it..
I wrote something quite similar to this but i don't where I should be put it

Injector injector = new MyModelStandaloneSetup().createInjectorAndDoEMFRegistration();
ResourceSet resourceSet = injector.getInstance(XtextResourceSet.class);

resourceSet.getResourceFactoryRegistry().getExtensionToFactoryMap().put(
Resource.Factory.Registry.DEFAULT_EXTENSION,
new XMIResourceFactoryImpl());

URI uri = URI.createURI("person.cm");
Resource xtextResource = resourceSet.getResource(uri, true);
try {
xtextResource.load(null);
} catch (IOException e1) {
e1.printStackTrace();
}
EcoreUtil.resolveAll(xtextResource);
Resource xmiResource = resourceSet.createResource(URI.createURI("test.xmi"));
xmiResource.getContents().add(xtextResource.getContents().get(0));
try {
xmiResource.save(null);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}

I found something interesting in the generator workflow that could help to save the xtext resource as xmi..
<component file="my/textual/dsl/parser/Parser.oaw">
<metaModel idRef="mm"/>
<outputSlot value="mymodel"/>
<modelFile value="person.dsl"/>
</component>

<component class="oaw.emf.XmiWriter">
<modelFile value="out.xmi"/>
<inputSlot value="mymodel"/>
</component>

the problem is that The Modeling Workow Engine 2 syntax is different from the the modeling workflow engine, and when I try to write like :
component = oaw.emf.XmiWriter {
modelFile = "out.xmi"
inputSlot = "mymodel"
}
the following error appears : Couldn't resolve reference to JvmType 'oaw.emf.XmiWriter'

Hi,

which version do you use. i guess you use M2T Xpand (>=0.7) and not oAW Xpand (<= 4.3.1)

=> the classname is org.eclipse.xtend.typesystem.emf.XmiWriter
but since it is deprecated you should use org.eclipse.emf.mwe.utils.Writer

even if you use good old oaw xpand it is org.openarchitectureware....XmiWriter
(the shorthands of mwe wont work)

Thanks for your response, I have 1.1.1 version
there is no documentation of org.eclipse.emf.mwe.utils.Writer, which is weird!!
do u know how can I write the parser component ( the file property !! )
<component file="my/textual/dsl/parser/Parser.oaw">
<metaModel idRef="mm"/>
<outputSlot value="mymodel"/>
<modelFile value="person.dsl"/>
</component>
using the Modeling Workow Engine 2.

thanks,

Ismail

Hi once more oAW Xtext != Eclipse Xtext => Trying to translate a oAW Xtext Workflow is of limited sense.
there is the org.eclipse.xtext.mwe.Reader or the org.eclipse.xtext.mwe.UriBasedReader
for that

Hi,

this is driving me crazy!! I'm trying this which, I found in xtext 2.1 documentation:( to read the dsl file and load it as a xtextResource )

Injector injector = new GaCodeModelStandaloneSetup().createInjectorAndDoEMFRegistration();
XtextResourceSet resourceSet = injector.getInstance(XtextResourceSet.class);
URI uri = URI.createURI("person.cm");
Resource xtextResource = resourceSet.getResource(uri, true);

but it throws this exception :
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Cannot create a resource for 'person.cm'; a registered resource factory is needed
at org.eclipse.emf.ecore.resource.impl.ResourceSetImpl.getResource(ResourceSetImpl.java:394)
at org.eclipse.xtext.resource.SynchronizedXtextResourceSet.getResource(SynchronizedXtextResourceSet.java:23)

so I add this to the code
resourceSet.getResourceFactoryRegistry().getExtensionToFactoryMap().put(
Resource.Factory.Registry.DEFAULT_EXTENSION,
new XMIResourceFactoryImpl());

it throws
Exception in thread "main" org.eclipse.emf.ecore.resource.impl.ResourceSetImpl$1DiagnosticWrappedException: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Content is not allowed in prolog.

in the second eclipse, when I try to open the dsl file using a sample reflective ecore editor as shown in the xtext website, it gives the same exception!! ( content is not allowed in prolog )

Hi are you sure cm is the extension of your dsl

Yes, I'm sure...
When I create files with cm as extension in the second eclipse, I can use all the editor functions..

Hi,

then

Injector injector = new GaCodeModelStandaloneSetup().createInjectorAndDoEMFRegistration();
XtextResourceSet resourceSet = injector.getInstance(XtextResourceSet.class);
URI uri = URI.createURI("person.cm");
Resource xtextResource = resourceSet.getResource(uri, true);

should be totally sufficient. and i have no idea why this is not working

can you share the code of your GaCodeModelStandaloneSetup and GaCodeModelStandaloneSetupGenerated?

Yeah it could be the problem..
I created a main method in the GaCodeModelStandaloneSetup class to test the code...is it a problem?

nope this is ok. but your fileextension is CM and not cm (the editor will work anyway - but may be buggy to)

Of course if you use the correct file extension you wont need the

resourceSet.getResourceFactoryRegistry().getExtensionToFactoryMap().put(
Resource.Factory.Registry.DEFAULT_EXTENSION, 
new XMIResourceFactoryImpl());

stuff

Thanks, you are totally right....
I deleted this statement and I tried with the CM extension and it works.
Here is the code for who may be interested:

Injector injector = new GaCodeModelStandaloneSetup().createInjectorAndDoEMFRegistration();
		
		XtextResourceSet resourceSet = injector.getInstance(XtextResourceSet.class);
		
		URI uri = URI.createURI("personXMI.CM");
		// Resource xtextResource = resourceSet.createResource(uri);
		Resource xtextResource = resourceSet.getResource(uri, true);
		
		EcoreUtil.resolveAll(xtextResource);
		
		Resource xmiResource = resourceSet.createResource(URI.createURI("test.xmi"));
		xmiResource.getContents().add(xtextResource.getContents().get(0));
		try {
			xmiResource.save(null);
		} catch (IOException e) {
			e.printStackTr

thanks for your help.
