Hi,

I have two UML2-models:
- "main.uml"
- contains package "foo" which contains class "SimpleClass" which
contains property "age" which is of PrimitiveType "int" (which is not
contained in "main.uml")
- "references.uml"
- contains only the PrimitiveType "int"

Now I want to load these models and save them in a different folder. The
way I do it now messes up the reference from "main.uml" to
"references.uml", because "main.uml" contains still the old path to the
old "references.uml".

Here is how I load the models in a List of Model:

@Override
protected List<Model> createModels() throws Exception
{
List<Model> models = new Vector<Model>();

ResourceSet rSet = new ResourceSetImpl();

// load the models

Model model = loadModel(rSet, "main.uml");
models.add(model);
Model refmodel = loadModel(rSet, "references.uml");
models.add(refmodel);

// return the models

return models;
}

private Model loadModel( ResourceSet rSet, String name ) throws Exception
{
XMIResourceFactoryImpl _xmiFac = new XMIResourceFactoryImpl();
EObject sourceModel = null;

rSet.getResourceFactoryRegistry().getExtensionToFactoryMap() .put( "*",
_xmiFac);

URL modelURL = FileLocator.find(Activator.getDefault().getBundle(),
new Path("completeTestTestData/model/" + name), null);
modelURL = FileLocator.toFileURL(modelURL);
String absolutePath = modelURL.getPath();
URI uri = URI.createFileURI(absolutePath);

// register meta-model
rSet.getPackageRegistry().put(UMLPackage.eNS_URI, UMLPackage.eINSTANCE);
rSet.getPackageRegistry().put(OtmlPackage.eNS_URI,
OtmlPackage.eINSTANCE);

Resource resource = rSet.getResource(uri, true);
if( resource != null )
{
if( resource.getContents().size() > 0 )
{
sourceModel = (EObject) resource.getContents().get(0);
}
}

return (Model) sourceModel;
}

Here is how I save them (without changing anything) in a different folder:

public void saveModels( List<Model> models, IFolder modelFolder )
throws Exception
{
ResourceSet resourceSet = new ResourceSetImpl();

List<Resource> resources = new Vector<Resource>();

for( Model model : models )
{
String fileName = model.getName() + ".uml";
IFile file = modelFolder.getFile(fileName);
String path = file.getLocation().toFile().getAbsolutePath();
URI fileURI = URI.createFileURI(path);
Resource aResource = resourceSet.createResource(fileURI);
aResource.getContents().add(model);
resources.add(aResource);
}

for( Resource resource : resources )
{
resource.save(Collections.EMPTY_MAP);
}
}

One thing I stumbled upon: If I navigate to the reference in the loaded
EMF-model (after loading, before saving), then the saving works. So if I
give the "main-"model to the following method, then the saving is OK:

private void forDebugging( Model model )
{
for( org.eclipse.uml2.uml.Package pack : model.getNestedPackages() )
{
String name = pack.getName();

for( Type type : pack.getOwnedTypes() )
{
String typeName = type.getName();

if( type instanceof Classifier )
{
Classifier classifier = (Classifier) type;

for( Property prop : classifier.getAllAttributes() )
{
String propName = prop.getName();

Type propType = prop.getType();
String propTypeName = propType.getName();
}
}
}
}
}

So how can I save the models, so that the reference is "updated" ?

thank you

Maybe I should wait for a never mind? :-P

You might need to ensure all proxies are resolved. EcoreUtil.resolveAll
is useful for that.

Vector. Yuck.

EMF should be able to process any URL directly.

Yes, be sure all the proxies are resolved. You can just change the URI
of the resources you've already loaded and save those...

Indeed, unresolved proxies are an issue then. They record the original
resource location and saving does not resolve proxies.
