Evl validation without GUI [message #1784089] Thu, 22 March 2018 11:45 Go to next message

Hello,

I'm using EVL to validate an EMF model.
I notice that it requires always a display, so it is a problem to run an evl validation from command line (if there is no display available).

As far as I can see, there is no distinction between "GUI" plugins and "GUI-free" plugins.
This implies also that the minimum eclipse RCP with evl plugins, must also contains eclipse plugins to provide GUI support.

There is any planning about split "GUI" and "not-GUI-related" code in two distinct set of plugins?
Or at least a way to make the GUI dependency optional.

Best regards
Nicola

Hi Nicola,

You can validate the EMF model by programmatically running the EVL script.
Please take a look at the standalone examples of Epsilon (https://git.eclipse.org/c/epsilon/org.eclipse.epsilon.git/plain/examples/org.eclipse.epsilon.examples.standalone/src/org/eclipse/epsilon/examples/standalone)

Does this help?

Regards,
Simos

Hi Simos,

currently, I'm using EvlValidation ( https://git.eclipse.org/c/epsilon/org.eclipse.epsilon.git/plain/plugins/org.eclipse.epsilon.evl.emf.validation/src/org/eclipse/epsilon/evl/emf/validation/EvlValidator.java ) to validate an EMF model.

But its manifest (https://git.eclipse.org/c/epsilon/org.eclipse.epsilon.git/plain/plugins/org.eclipse.epsilon.evl.emf.validation/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF) requires the org.eclipse.ui.ide plugin.


I will check how replace the EvlValidation class/plugin with the standalone example.
Thank you,

Nicola

Hi Nicola,

EvlValidation is intended to be used to respond to Validate commands on the right click menu of Emf Models currently opened in an Emf Editor (e.g. the RefelectiveEmdModelEditor). Hence, it depends on an Eclipse instance and that is why you get the UI dependency. For standalone (i.e no Eclipse IDE) you should use the information in the link provided by Simos.

Cheers,

Horacio Hoyos Rodriguez
