Hi,

I need to conserve all the model structure but transform one element only.

What is the best way to make that?

Regards.

Hi

I'm not sure about QVTo, but ATL supports in-place transformations.

It would be interest to know whether QVTo supports them.

Hi,

Yes, QVTo supports inplace transformations.

Regards.

As far as I understand you need in-place transformation? This transformation copies (conserves) all the model structure and allows you to change some elements.

Hi

I've not used it myself, but I think you just declare the model as
"inout". Compare to the conventional "in" and "out" for a manually coded
copy/regeneration.

Hi Ed,

Can i copy all the model structure modifying only one property without in-place transformation?

I need transform just an operator on a java model with mutation testing ends.

Regards

There is a pattern to copy all the model structure?

Regards.

Hi

Yes. But you have to code the copy yourself; really tedious unless you
use an auto-generator. You could wrap a call to EcoreUtil.Copier.

Provision of a more automated copy is a WIBNIF for all three QVT languages.

The generator approach works pretty well. It allows to code selective changes, without specifying the schematic repetitive traversal code. A successful application of the approach has already been reported by Alexander Kraas: http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-1285/paper06.pdf

Hi

Unfortunately that paper only does half the work. There is no
extensibility through a shared/disjuncted hierarchy of copies.

A little more work synthesizing these can make the approach much more
re-useable and extensible.

Sorry, can't follow you here. What hierarchy of copies?

Hi

Each class should contribute a copy method for its own attributes so
that there is a hierarchy of copy methods that derived classes can join
together as appropriate in the autogenerated framework.

The tailoring application can then just override those parts that are
necessary.

For example. Suppose my tailoring transformation wants to enforce upper
case names, I want to do that once in the abstract copy for the name
feature, not in every derived class that re-implements the name copy.

Regards

Ed Willink

Hi

Yes, we solved this problem by generating an abstract 'doCopy' mapping per abstract base class, which copies only the class attributes. This mapping is then inherited by all subclass mappings:

mapping EClassifier :: copyEClassifier() : EClassifier
   disjuncts EClass::copyEClass, EDataType::copyEDataType;

mapping EClass :: copyEClass() : EClass 
   inherits EClassifier::doCopyEClassifier {

      eStructuralFeatures := self.eStructuralFeatures.map copyEStructuralFeature();
      ...
}

mapping EDataType :: copyEDataType() : EDataType
   inherits EClassifier::doCopyEClassifier {

      serializable := self.serializable;
}

abstract mapping EClassifier :: doCopyEClassifier() : EClassifier 
   inherits ENamedElement::doCopyENamedElement {

      eTypeParameters := self.eTypeParameters.map copyETypeParameter();
      ...
}

abstract mapping ENamedElement :: doCopyENamedElement() : ENamedElement {
   name := self.name;
}


What I would like to do is using disjuncts/inherits together:

mapping EClassifier :: copyEClassifier() : EClassifier
   inherits EClassifier::doCopyEClassifier
   disjuncts EClass::copyEClass, EDataType::copyEDataType;
But that's not supported by Eclipse QVTo.

Hi,

To clarify my problem, still unresolved.....

the following is my java program. I need replace the PLUS sign by a MINUS sign.

-------------------------------
package tesis;

public class clase1 {
private int metodo () {
int op1 = 8;
int op2 = 2;
int suma= op1+op2;
return suma;
}
}
-----------------------------------
I attach the file of the resultant model from the MoDisco discoverer.
