Profile reapplication [message #469885]

Hello,

The specification of Package#applyProfile() is:

Applies the current definition of the specified profile to this package
and automatically applies required stereotypes in the profile to elements
within this package's namespace hieararchy. If a different definition is
already applied, automatically migrates any associated stereotype values
on a "best effort" basis (matching classifiers and structural features by
name).

According to this specification when I reapply a profile to a model M the
stereotypeApplications of M are migrated to the new profile application
(new definition).

But when I call applyProfile with a profile already applied this migration
is not performed and I have two stereotypes available (one for the old
profile and one for the new one).

The result is something like this in the uml file:

<Test:Stereotype_0 xmi:id="_WATyMLLcEduZAKbcGyKgJg"
base_Element="_QAoHsLLcEduZAKbcGyKgJg">
<Property_0>hello world</Property_0>
</Test:Stereotype_0>
<Test_1:Stereotype_0 xmi:id="_sz--ULLcEduZAKbcGyKgJg"
base_Element="_QOLbgLLcEduZAKbcGyKgJg">
<Property_0>new hello world</Property_0>

I am using uml2 2.0.3. Do I have to do something else than calling
Package#applyProfile() to make the migration occur?

Cheers,

Chokri

Hi Chokri,

Package::applyProfile() should be all that you need to call. You can have a
look at PackageOperations::applyProfile() to see what's going on.
It makes use of the StereotypeApplicationCopier() to achieve its task.

From the snippet you have provided below it seems like two stereotypes were
applied to the same element ... not good :(

Can you provide step by step details of how you arrived at this point.
Also, did you remember to "define" your profile after making changes to
update it? ( I suspect that you did).

If you can supply your profile and model I can have a look at it.

Regards,
- James.

James,

I think I have a problem of resource loading before the profile
application.
Could you give me an example (code) of what should be done before
Package#applyProfile() call?

For instance is the resourceSet is the one of the package on which I want
to apply profile on? Do I need to call UMLUtil.load() to load the profile
resource, etc...

Thanks,

Chokri

Hello,

Here is my code to apply a profile "profileToApply" to the package
"package_".
If an older version of the profile is applied I loose the stereotypes
already applied in package_.

URI profileUri =
URI.createURI("platform:/resource"+selectedFile.getFullPath().toString());

Package package_ = getSelected();
ResourceSet resourceSet = package_.eResource().getResourceSet();

Profile profileToApply = (Profile)UMLUtil.load(resourceSet, profileUri,
UMLPackage.Literals.PROFILE);

if(profileToApply.isDefined()){

ProfileApplication profileApplication =
package_.getProfileApplication(profileToApply);
if(profileApplication == null ||
profileApplication.getAppliedDefinition() !=
profileToApply.getDefinition()){
package_.applyProfile(profileToApply);
}
}

Can anyone help me on this?

Thank you in advance.

Regards,

Chokri

Hi Chokri,

It looks like you are applying the profile correctly.
Can you post your profile and a sample model.
Could it be that the stereotypes in the new version are no longer
applicable?

Regards,

- James.

Chokri,

Have removed any of the previous definitions of the profile? Note that you
must keep the "legacy" Ecore representations around if you want to support
migration of data based on previous versions of the profile.
