I've spent several days now trying to programmatically create a Modeling Project through a New Project Wizard for my users. I want to reduce a nearly 20 step process to maybe 5 steps.
The only documentation I can find is in this forum. I'm trying to replicate it, but I'm getting random behavior that I just can't track down or understand. It's frustrating.
Here's most of my code - executed in the doFinish() method of a Project wizard:
Session session = SessionManager.INSTANCE.getSession(URI.createPlatformResourceURI(prjName+"/representations.aird"), new NullProgressMonitor());
session.open(new NullProgressMonitor());
TransactionalEditingDomain ted = session.getTransactionalEditingDomain();
ResourceSet resSet = ted.getResourceSet();
ted.getCommandStack().execute(new RecordingCommand(ted) {
@Override
protected void doExecute() {
ComponentType pcrComp = createPcrComp(file, resSet, vlnvLib, vlnvName);
// This next step seems to do nothing to avoid this beahvior.
// session.addSemanticResource(pcrComp.eResource().getURI(), new NullProgressMonitor());
}
});
session.save(new NullProgressMonitor());
Display.getDefault().asyncExec(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
UserSession.from(session).selectOnlyViewpoint("MyViews");
}
});
session.save(new NullProgressMonitor());
When I run this code, frustratingly, the representations.aird file loads EVERY METAMODEL and metamodel plugin in my dev environment. Something like:
<semanticResources>the file I actually want and that was created and saved in the resourceSet of the transaction edit domain</semanticResources>
<semanticResources>platform:/plugin/<plugpath>/designer.odesign</semanticResources>
<semanticResources>environment:/viewpoint</semanticResources>
<semanticResources>platform:/plugin/<plugpath>my.ecore</semanticResources>
<semanticResources>platform:/plugin/<plugpath>another.ecore</semanticResources>
<semanticResources>platform:/plugin/<plugpath>yetAnother.ecore</semanticResources>
<semanticResources>platform:/plugin/org.eclipse.sirius.properties.defaultrules/model/properties.odesign</semanticResources>
Creating a New Modeling Project, adding a resource, then enabling my Viewpoint works great if I drive it manually in the GUI, but it's nearly 20 steps for the end user which is not great.
Why in the world would doing this programmatically load the "entire world" of metamodels as semantic resources? The result is that the respresentations.aird file is cluttered and the Right Click -> Viewpoint Selection menu has all of these unrelated Viewpoints listed (although they are unselected). This does not happen if I do it all manually in the GUI.
I've tried several methods of creating a new session and all of them suffer from this:
Session session = SessionFactory.INSTANCE.createDefaultSession(URI.createPlatformResourceURI(prjName+"/representations.aird"));
vs
Session session = SessionFactory.INSTANCE.createSession(URI.createPlatformResourceURI(prjName+"/representations.aird"), new NullProgressMonitor());
vs
Session session = SessionManager.INSTANCE.getSession(URI.createPlatformResourceURI(prjName+"/representations.aird"), new NullProgressMonitor());
This behavior happens in a runtime instance while I'm developing. Is that a hint as to what is going wrong?
Another random aspect is that if I create consecutive projects, the behavior is slightly more random in that in the Model Explorer view, sometimes the semantic resources are listed under Project Dependencies, and then sometimes they are not. I've been unable to track down why.
