Hello everyone,

I have a problem when I want to create a Node in the way I will describe below.

In my meta-model I have a class named ConnectorDeclaration which contains a list of objects of the class PortDeclarationReferenceParameter (named portParameters), and an object of class ConnectorType (named type). In the ConnectorType class there is a list of objects of the class ConnectorPortParameterDeclaration (named ports). See next picture for all of this.

index.php/fa/24127/0/

When I want to create a Node which will represents and instance of the class ConnectorDeclaration, in the same time I want to fill the list portParameters and this objects to show as a Border Nodes. The size of this list is the same with the size of the list ports in the ConnectorType class.

I am doing this using Service, and call the function getPortParameters in the Semantic Candidate Expression when creating the Border Node. The Java code for the service is:

public void generateConnectorDeclarationPortParameters(ConnectorDeclaration connectorDeclaration) {

		/* The Port Factory */
		PortFactory portFactory = new PortFactoryImpl();
		/* The resulting list */
		List<PortDeclarationReferenceParameter> result = new LinkedList<PortDeclarationReferenceParameter>();

		/* Get the type of the connector */
		ConnectorType connectorType = connectorDeclaration.getType();

		if (connectorType != null) {
			/*
			 * The number of Port Declaration Reference Parameters to be created
			 */
			int numOfPortParams = connectorType.getPorts().size();

			for (int i = 0; i < numOfPortParams; i++) {
				PortDeclarationReferenceParameter temp = portFactory.createPortDeclarationReferenceParameter();
				connectorDeclaration.getPortParameters().add(temp);
			}
		}
	}

	public EList<PortDeclarationReferenceParameter> getPortParameters(ConnectorDeclaration connectorDeclaration) {
		this.generateConnectorDeclarationPortParameters(connectorDeclaration);
		return connectorDeclaration.getPortParameters();
	}




The problem is, when I do this the Eclipse is not responding, which means there is a problem.

Hello,

Your method generateConnectorDeclarationPortParameters() calls
getPortParameters() and getPortParameters() calls
generateConnectorDeclarationPortParameters() so it looks like a loop
that explain why Eclipse is not responding.

However, I do not think that you need java code to do this. In the Node
creation tool that creates your ConnectorDeclaration element, you can
ask a "for" operation with expression "connectorType.getPorts().size()".
Inside this "for" operation you add a CreateInstance operation typed
PortDeclarationReferenceParameter with referenceName "portParameters".

Regards,
Steve

Hello,

thank you for the answer. But, in fact there is another problem. In the time when I will create an instance of the ConnectorDeclaration the type is not set. So after creating an instance, in the Properties window I set the type of the ConnectorDeclaration. I implemented your solution, but because of this issue the Border Nodes are not appearing. I tried to put a fix number in the Expression in the for loop (let's say 1), and it worked. So, I think the problem is how to do the same, but after seting the type in the Properties window.
