Unable to resolve applicable stereotype [message #471641] Wed, 14 March 2007 15:19 Go to next message

Hello,

I have deefined a UML profile and have successfully applied it to a model,
applying stereotypes without problems, using the eclipse UML editor.
However I am as yet unable to achieve this in my code.

I've checked that I'm calling model.applyProfile(profile), I create an
owned class for a package (called target) and then do:
Stereotype s = target.getApplicableStereotype(stereotypeName)

This always returns null. I also find that
target.getApplicableStereotypes() returns an empty list.

The code continues to build the model file but without applying
stereotypes. I can then manually apply the stereotypes using the UML
editor later, proving (perhaps) that the stereotypes are valid for the
classes being genereated.

I notice that the UMLArticles example does not use getApplicableStereotype
as it constructs the profile and then uses the stereotype references
directly when applying them to the model later on.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Some additional information:
It seems that getExtension() in
org.eclipse.uml2.uml.internal.operations.ElementOperations is failing to
determine a type for the metaclass extension attribute (the stereotype's
property starting with "base_"), i.e. attribute.getType() returns null.
I'm using UML 2.0.2.

Cheers

Hi Paul,

Can you post your profile so that I can have a look?
This sounds really bizarre because the UML editor doesn't do anything
special when applying stereotypes.
If it works with the editor, it should work with your program.

Paul,

Have you registered the required pathmaps as outlined in the FAQ (and shown
in the source for the "Introduction to UML2 Profiles" article)?

Yes I've set up the pathmaps. One alteration from the FAQ is that the
2.0.2 API doesn't have URI.create(..) so I've used URI.createURI(..)
passing my jar resource as a string argument.

I've found the problem. It seems that one of my esteemed colleagues
changed (incorrectly) the URI reference to the
org.eclipse.uml2.uml.resources-2.0.2.v200610251409.jar resource file,
causing the UML2 libraries to silently fail to resolve resource references.

It's quite difficult to debug this stuff when it goes wrong, as there's no
feedback from the uml2 library code.
