For ValidateOO.evl, I got the following error:

Hi Bahman,
From your description it seems that you may be using an outdated
version of the Epsilon plugins (I've just tried the two examples with
the bundle available at www.eclipse.org/gmt/epsilon/download.php and
they seem to work). Before going deeper into this could you please
confirm that you are using the latest version of the plugins atop Java
1.5 (or greater)?
Cheers,
Dimitrios

Hi Dimitrios,
Thanks for reply. I have already had Eclipse 3.2.1 and EMF 2.2.1 installed
atop Java 1.6; Therefore, I just downloaded Epsilon plug-in (2.8MB) from the
page that you referred to it. However, I thin I don't have MDR plug-in
installed. Is it mandatory? IMHO, both EMF and MDR are implementations of
MOF, so, one of them is sufficient.
Actually, I'm interested in running EWL examples in Eclipse, but it seems
that your plug-in does not include EWL yet, right? I have some questions in
this regard and will ask you in future.

I've tried with the plugins on a clean Eclipse 3.2 and EMF 2.2.0
installation that I have but unfortunately I cannot reproduce the errors.
The reason I asked you about your version of Epsilon is that your EOL
errors are all related to
*var x : X := new X;*
and
*x := new X;*
statements, and this syntax was recently introduced in EOL (a few months
ago - before that only statements of type *var x : new X;* were
supported). In case you had downloaded/installed the Epsilon plugins
before the new syntax was introduced and re-installed now, Eclipse may
have cached the older versions. Have you tried the -clean switch?
For the EVL example that does not contain such statements I suspect that
you do not launch the EVL validation correctly (you don't specify the
input model). The safe way to go is to open the OOValidation.launch file
(stored launch configuration) by dbl-clicking it in the Navigator and
then locate and run the newly created OOValidation launch configuration.

The MDR plugin is needed if you need to access MOF1.4/XMI1.x models
(e.g. created from ArgoUML, older versions of Poseidon etc).

Unlike the rest of the languages in Epsilon - which are executed on the
serialized models (i.e. XMI) - EWL is executed on "live" models and
thus, supporting tools need to integrate tightly with the respective
visual editors (e.g. listen for selection changes, trigger updates on
the UI). We are planning to implement such support in the near future
for GMF-based visual editors. If you have any further
questions/suggestions I'm more than happy to answer them.

Hi again,
You're right, my Epsilon plug-in was outdated (installed on Apr. 30th)!
As a suggestion, it would be useful to include FAQ.txt file into all single
examples as well, it helped me a lot.
Now all examples work fine, except for validation example(ValidateOO.evl),
which after giving appropriate messages in validation tab, it remains in
LAUNCHING mode and makes cpu 100% busy, and it can't be stopped. The only
escape way is to exit Eclipse. I tried in on a completely new Eclipse by
downloading the complete bundle from Epsilon site, it is the same.
About EWL, I can't see too much difference between EVL (or ETL) and EWL,
except the point of interactivity in EWL. For instance, in wizards.ewl in
ArgoUML examples, you consider adding getters and setters as and example of
wizard, and in Eclipse examples we have it as a transformation.

Thanks a lot for your suggestion. I'll add the content of the FAQ.txt in
the Examples page or in the Eclipse Wiki soon.

After the constraints are evaluated, the EVL engine goes into a "fixing"
mode. In this mode you can right-click messages in the Validation view
and apply fixes to elements for which constraints have failed (if the
constraints define fix parts (e.g. the NameShouldStartWithUpperCase
constraint)). When you are done with reviewing failed constraints and/or
performing fixes you can click the arrow-shaped "Finish..." button in
the Validation view and the engine will terminate.
BTW If you are interested, I can send you a copy of the reference paper
for EVL that is currently under review.

The difference between EWL and the transformation in the examples is
that the prior is applied on specific attributes selected explicitly by
the user while the latter is applied on all the attributes in the model.
Therefore, proper EWL tool-support needs to be able to monitor the
editor so that it can capture element selection/deselection events
(similarly to what is done in the ArgoUML implementation).
This is certainly feasible in GMF but it will take some time to
implement :) However, if you need this feature urgently and/or decide to
implement it yourself, I'll be glad to help you and also share with you
the existing ArgoUML/EWL code.
Again, if you are interested in knowing more about EWL, I can send you a
preprint of a paper that discusses the language in detail (it will be
presented in TOOLS EUROPE 2007 in June).

Hi Dimitrios,
Thank you. Now all examples are working fine. DONE!
I've read two of the papers that are available in your web page ("EOL" and
"Eclipse Dev Tools for Epsilon"). If you send me more sources about EWL, I
appreciate that. (please email me)
I'm doing my research on V&V of Models and I think I have a long way to
finish!!

Hi Bahman,
On an update to this thread, Epsilon now provides tool support for
executing interactive EWL wizards (i.e. scripts/macros) to automate
tasks in GMF-based editors (e.g. UML2 Tools editors, the GMF-based Ecore
editor etc). A relevant flash demo is available at
http://www.eclipse.org/gmt/epsilon/cinema/
Cheers,
Dimitrios

Hi Bahman,
From your description it seems that you may be using an outdated
version of the Epsilon plugins (I've just tried the two examples with
the bundle available at www.eclipse.org/gmt/epsilon/download.php and
they seem to work). Before going deeper into this could you please
confirm that you are using the latest version of the plugins atop Java
1.5 (or greater)?
Cheers,
Dimitrios

I've tried with the plugins on a clean Eclipse 3.2 and EMF 2.2.0
installation that I have but unfortunately I cannot reproduce the errors.
The reason I asked you about your version of Epsilon is that your EOL
errors are all related to
*var x : X := new X;*
and
*x := new X;*
statements, and this syntax was recently introduced in EOL (a few months
ago - before that only statements of type *var x : new X;* were
supported). In case you had downloaded/installed the Epsilon plugins
before the new syntax was introduced and re-installed now, Eclipse may
have cached the older versions. Have you tried the -clean switch?
For the EVL example that does not contain such statements I suspect that
you do not launch the EVL validation correctly (you don't specify the
input model). The safe way to go is to open the OOValidation.launch file
(stored launch configuration) by dbl-clicking it in the Navigator and
then locate and run the newly created OOValidation launch configuration.
However, I thin I don't have MDR plug-in

The MDR plugin is needed if you need to access MOF1.4/XMI1.x models
(e.g. created from ArgoUML, older versions of Poseidon etc).

Unlike the rest of the languages in Epsilon - which are executed on the
serialized models (i.e. XMI) - EWL is executed on "live" models and
thus, supporting tools need to integrate tightly with the respective
visual editors (e.g. listen for selection changes, trigger updates on
the UI). We are planning to implement such support in the near future
for GMF-based visual editors. If you have any further
questions/suggestions I'm more than happy to answer them.

Hi again,
You're right, my Epsilon plug-in was outdated (installed on Apr. 30th)!
As a suggestion, it would be useful to include FAQ.txt file into all single
examples as well, it helped me a lot.
Now all examples work fine, except for validation example(ValidateOO.evl),
which after giving appropriate messages in validation tab, it remains in
LAUNCHING mode and makes cpu 100% busy, and it can't be stopped. The only
escape way is to exit Eclipse. I tried in on a completely new Eclipse by
downloading the complete bundle from Epsilon site, it is the same.
About EWL, I can't see too much difference between EVL (or ETL) and EWL,
except the point of interactivity in EWL. For instance, in wizards.ewl in
ArgoUML examples, you consider adding getters and setters as and example of
wizard, and in Eclipse examples we have it as a transformation.

Thanks a lot for your suggestion. I'll add the content of the FAQ.txt in
the Examples page or in the Eclipse Wiki soon.

After the constraints are evaluated, the EVL engine goes into a "fixing"
mode. In this mode you can right-click messages in the Validation view
and apply fixes to elements for which constraints have failed (if the
constraints define fix parts (e.g. the NameShouldStartWithUpperCase
constraint)). When you are done with reviewing failed constraints and/or
performing fixes you can click the arrow-shaped "Finish..." button in
the Validation view and the engine will terminate.
BTW If you are interested, I can send you a copy of the reference paper
for EVL that is currently under review.

The difference between EWL and the transformation in the examples is
that the prior is applied on specific attributes selected explicitly by
the user while the latter is applied on all the attributes in the model.
Therefore, proper EWL tool-support needs to be able to monitor the
editor so that it can capture element selection/deselection events
(similarly to what is done in the ArgoUML implementation).
This is certainly feasible in GMF but it will take some time to
implement :) However, if you need this feature urgently and/or decide to
implement it yourself, I'll be glad to help you and also share with you
the existing ArgoUML/EWL code.
Again, if you are interested in knowing more about EWL, I can send you a
preprint of a paper that discusses the language in detail (it will be
presented in TOOLS EUROPE 2007 in June).

Thank you. Now all examples are working fine. DONE!
I've read two of the papers that are available in your web page ("EOL" and
"Eclipse Dev Tools for Epsilon"). If you send me more sources about EWL, I
appreciate that. (please email me)
I'm doing my research on V&V of Models and I think I have a long way to
finish!!

Hi Bahman,
On an update to this thread, Epsilon now provides tool support for
executing interactive EWL wizards (i.e. scripts/macros) to automate
tasks in GMF-based editors (e.g. UML2 Tools editors, the GMF-based Ecore
editor etc). A relevant flash demo is available at
http://www.eclipse.org/gmt/epsilon/cinema/
Cheers,
Dimitrios
