Hi, I'm trying to extend Hawk to support LabVIEW / Simulink models. I would like to know what are the steps (e.g first create a metamodel,then parser , etc) to follow in order to achieve a successful implementation. I would also appreciate any existing example.

Thanks

Saheed

Hi Saheed,

I replied to your email, but I will reply from here as well in case someone else runs into the same question :-).

You'd need to write IMetamodelResourceFactory and IModelResourceFactory implementations for LabVIEW models. You can do them from scratch (as we did for Modelio models [1]), or you could try to map LabVIEW models to EMF and then piggyback on EMF (as we have done for RDM JSON files [2]).

Which option would work best for you? Mapping to EMF is probably the most straightforward, but going straight from LabVIEW would normally have the most flexibility and performance. You will need to define some sort of metamodel for your LabVIEW models in any case.

Edit (11 June 2019): fixed [2].

Kind regards,
Antonio

Hi Antonio,

I am interested in your piggybacking solution for EMF as referenced in [2] but am I having trouble finding the example (the link given 404's). Could you please provide an updated reference?

Thanks
Jon
