Hi,
I just started using OCL within Java and I'm encountering some issues.
I'm creating models using MoDisco, which conform to multiple meta-models (java, javaapplication, kdmSourceExtension, and kdm), and I'm trying to request those models for some specific data.

So, when I'm requesting the model conforming to the MoDisco java meta-model, things are working fine. But when requesting the JavaApplication one, where the elements inherit from the kdmSourceExtension one, it won't work, and I'm having exceptions during the parsing, such as:

org.eclipse.ocl.SemanticException: Unknown type (ASTNodeSourceRegion)

My Java code is the following:

ocl = OCL.newInstance(EcoreEnvironmentFactory.INSTANCE);
OCL_HELPER = ocl.createOCLHelper();
OCL_HELPER.setContext(JavaapplicationPackage.eINSTANCE.getEClassifier("Java2File"));
OCLExpression query = OCL_HELPER.createQuery("self.children -> collect(n : ASTNodeSourceRegion | n.node)");
Object o = ocl.evaluate(java2File, query);


What can I do to collect those nodes ? Here is a sample of the metamodel:

An other example:
JavaNodeSourceRegion.allInstances() -> collect (node) ---> works 

ASTNodeSourceRegion.allInstances() -> collect (node) ---> Does not work
Despite the fact that JavaNodeSourceRegion inherits from ASTNodeSourceRegion.

Thank you, for any advice you could give me

Hi

You'll probably need to provide a complete repro project since your snippets only reveal 10% of the opportunities for mistakes.

IIRC the old "OCL" requires you to specify a registry with the EPackages you use. I don''t see that.

(The new Pivot OCL will find them on the classpath.)

Hi, thank you for your answer.

I'm running this inside a standalone maven project, using the OCL libraries available on mvnrepository (so, outside of Eclipse).

Quote:

I probably have not did that. The only configuration I have written before evaluating my query on the Java2File object is the following:

JavaPackage.eINSTANCE.eClass();
JavaapplicationPackage.eINSTANCE.eClass();
ExtensionPackage.eINSTANCE.eClass();
KdmPackage.eINSTANCE.eClass();

Resource.Factory.Registry reg = Resource.Factory.Registry.INSTANCE;
Map<String, Object> m = reg.getExtensionToFactoryMap();
m.put("xmi", new XMIResourceFactoryImpl());


How can I specify a registry with the ePackages I use, to OCL ?
If this does not help I'll provide some samples of my project.

Thank you
