Using Java APIs [message #1765516] Sun, 11 June 2017 20:40 Go to next message

Hello,

I want to extract the context for which an OCL has been violated in a separate model. For that purpose, first, I used OCL APIs in a standalone java application to validate a UML model. The UML model is an instance of a UML profile which has some constraints.
I read the previous posts regarding that and I found out Pivot object instead of UML objects are used.
I basically used the code that one of the members previously posted in the forum (with small changes). I attach the project which includes the code, profiles and models. When I ran the code, I receive an exception that I cannot figure it out. I should say that when I validate the model by right click-> OCL->validate , it returns the validation result correctly.

Sorry if my question is very simple, but any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Jeni

Hi

You don't tell me what to do or what to expect!

Once I fix trivial BREE/import errors and delete the Papyrus Action Language Profiles, running Ocltest.main gives plausible output; no exceptions.

(I do not understand or support Papyrus Action Language Profiles; they appear to be a way of doing what OCL already does in some strange different way.)

Regards

Hi Ed,

Thanks for the quick reply.


For now, I just want to see which constraints are violated. Later, I will add code to extract the context of violated constraint and the violated element as an output which will be input for another application.

This time, I think I removed the unnecessary imports and Papyrus action Language profile ; but I still have the same error. Sorry for this basic question. I am learning OCL programming.
I attach the file with changes.

Once again Thank you.

Hi

You have provided a repro; good, but you omit critical details. What is the error?

See https://wiki.eclipse.org/OCL/ForumNetiquette

Hi

What version are you using? I recall fixing an embarrassing import issue a few months ago.

But when I try again, I now see your error. When I look at /TriggerExtraction/MyProfile/MonitoringModel.profile.uml I still see all the troublesome Papyrus profiles. Looking harder I see that your Profile has profile applications.

Normally a Profile defines facilities at M2 to be applied at M1. You are applying M2 facilities at M2. I am not sure what this means? Was it intentional?

Regards

I got eclipse Neon 2 days a go and I assume it is the latest version (eclipse.buildId=4.6.3.M20170301-0400)
I considered profile as a metamodel which is applied on a model because by profiling mechanism I am defining a new language. I know that profiles are considered as a model too which its metamodel is UML.

Do you mean that all of this is because of applying a profile on a model?

Thanks and best regards,
Mahin

Hi

Investigating anyway, I see the NPE is for a 'guaranteed non-null' object. See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=518129

There could be a better diagnostic and automatic skipping of missing profiles. See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=518130

What I reproduce is a problem through use of a Papyrus profile that is not installed. When you moved to Neon.2 did you effectively uninstall Papyrus. Can you identify where the Papyrus profile application came from? I suspect that some facility is injecting it undesirably.

Regards

Thanks Ed.

Previously, I had Luna with Papyrus installed. Lately, I moved to Neon and I just installed the "Modeling" plugins.
I made these profiles previously when I had Luna version, and did not installed Papyrus on Neon. Sorry for this question, How can check the Papyrus profile application?

Hi

No problem. It is awkward user experiences such as yours that can reveal obscure bugs.

I have never used the Papyrus constraint profiles, so I can only guess. My suspicion is that some menu displays the extra functionality and over-enthusiastically infects your model as an undesired side effect.

You can check by looking at the *.uml. The first couple of lines have an xmlns. The almost last line has an application.

Now I see where the action language profile which you pointed out earlier comes from. It is added automatically by Papyrus when I made the profile.

xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/spec/XMI/20131001" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:ActionLanguage="http://www.omg.org/spec/ALF/20120827/ActionLanguage-Profile" xmlns:ecore="http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore" xmlns:uml="http://www.eclipse.org/uml2/5.0.0/UML" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.omg.org/spec/ALF/20120827/ActionLanguage-Profile pathmap://PAPYRUS_ACTIONLANGUAGE_PROFILE/ActionLanguage-Profile.profile.uml#_sYse0YZLEeKyw49uR6nx3g">

Hi

I have to guess at your words "made a profile". Please raise a Papyrus Bugzilla with an exact sequence of innocuous commands that result in the excessive profile.

Hi Ed,

Sorry, I mean creating the "MonitoringModel.profile.uml". To create that profile, I used papyrus and created the stereotypes and imported UML metaclasses.

Thanks and best regards,
Jeni

Hi Ed,

I wanted to thank you for helping me. As you mentioned the error was because of the action language profile which was applied (I don't know how!)
but I deleted it and it is working now.

Once again, thank you :)

Best regards,
Jeni
