With org.eclipse.emf.edit.ui.celleditor.FeatureEditorDialog, the UML
Editor could have user-friendly support for editing property subsets and
element redefinitions where applicable.

To be effective, this would need reasonable queries to identify
all of the possible elements that could be subsetted or redefined
respectively.

What do you think of the following criteria for selecting property subsets?

context uml::Property : Bag(uml::Property)
body:
let cls:Bag(uml::Classifier)=self.featuringClassifier
.oclAsType(uml::Classifier) in
let parents:Bag(uml::Classifier)=cls->union(cls.allParents()) in
let prop:Bag(uml::Feature)=cls.allFeatures()
->intersection(parents.ownedMember->select(oclIsKindOf(uml::Feature))
->collect(oclAsType(uml::Feature)))->excluding(self)
->select(oclIsKindOf(uml::Property)) in
prop->select(let p:uml::Property=oclAsType(uml::Property) in
self.type.conformsTo(p.type))

What do you think of the following criteria for selecting element
redefinitions?

context uml::RedefinableElement : Bag(uml::RedefinableElement)
body:

if self.oclIsKindOf(uml::Property) then
let cls:Bag(uml::Classifier)=self.featuringClassifier
.oclAsType(uml::Classifier) in
let parents:Bag(uml::Classifier)=cls->union(cls.allParents()) in
let redefProp:Bag(uml::Feature)=parents.allFeatures()
->select(f|
f.oclIsKindOf(uml::Property) and
self.type.conformsTo(f.oclAsType(uml::Property).type))->asBag()
->intersection(parents.ownedMember
->select(oclIsKindOf(uml::Property))
->collect(oclAsType(uml::Property))
->excluding(self.oclAsType(uml::Property))
->asBag())
in redefProp

else

if self.oclIsKindOf(uml::Operation) then
let cls:Bag(uml::Classifier)=self.featuringClassifier
.oclAsType(uml::Classifier) in
let parents:Bag(uml::Classifier)=cls->union(cls.allParents()) in
let redefOp:Bag(uml::Feature)=parents.allFeatures()
->select(o|
o.oclIsKindOf(uml::Operation) and
self.type.conformsTo(o.oclAsType(uml::Operation).type))->asBag()
->intersection(parents.ownedMember
->select(oclIsKindOf(uml::Operation))
->collect(oclAsType(uml::Operation)
->excluding(self.oclAsType(uml::Operation))
->asBag())
in redefOp

else

Set{}

endif

endif

Errata.

For editing property subsets, the OCL query to find the subsettable
candidates should start from the subsetting classifier context instead of
the featuring classifier, i.e.,:

context uml::Property : Bag(uml::Property)
body: let cls:Bag(uml::Classifier)=self.subsettingContext()
.oclAsType(uml::Classifier) in
let parents:Bag(uml::Classifier)=cls->union(cls.allParents()) in
let prop:Bag(uml::Feature)=cls.allFeatures()
->intersection(parents.ownedMember->select(oclIsKindOf(uml::Feature))
->collect(oclAsType(uml::Feature)))->excluding(self)
->select(oclIsKindOf(uml::Property)) in
prop->select(let p:uml::Property=oclAsType(uml::Property) in
self.type.conformsTo(p.type))

Nicolas,

Sorry the delayed response; I think James and I were both waiting for the
other to repond.

Yes, the selecton dialog could be improved, as it could for many other
features in UML, by taking information about the intended semantics into
consideration. This hasn't been done in the past because the open source
editor is really just a sample. However, feel free to open an enhancement
request for this.

Note that the list of candidate features for both subsets and redefinitions
should take into account which features have been redefined, so it's
probably better to make use of the 'member' property (instead of
'ownedMember') to look for them...
