Dear All,

Can anyone help me with the following, I need OCL code to loop on all elements in a GMF diagram to check if they are all connected together.

For example:

1-Select all elements in diagram
2-Select start node
3-Try to select outgoing nodes of each element till arriving to the end node. (and save all nodes)
4- If step1 == step 3 -----------> success
else
Error

Thank you in advance for your help. Smile

Hi Mostafa

You'll find the extra closure() iterator in MDT/OCL since 1.2 and
probably in OMG OCL 2.3 helpful for step three.

sef->closure(outgoing)

will return a set of

self.outgoing
self.outgoing.outgoing
self.outgoing.outgoing.outgoing
self.outgoing.outgoing.outgoing.outgoing

etc

Regards

Hi Edward

I appreciate your fast reply. Smile

However, the result of the following:

start->closure(outgoingConnections)

returns

Usage of non-standard "closure" iterator Sad

Can you please provide me with more information?

Thank you in advance Smile

Hi

It should only be a warning, which you can suppress by code such as

BasicEnvironment benv =
OCLUtil.getAdapter(ocl.getEnvironment(), BasicEnvironment.class);
benv.setOption(ProblemOption.CLOSURE_ITERATOR,
ProblemHandler.Severity.OK);

Only if you tell me how you invoke your OCL in the first place.

I assumed you were using a Java API and so could add some Java code.

Dear Edward,

I am invoking OCL from the GMFMAP of my EMF/GMF Diagram.

Thank you in advance.

Hi Mostafa

Mm. Difficult. https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=329006 raised.

The message is a warning message that occurs during validation; it does
not inhibit OCL execution.

So you have one API problem with respect to OCL addressed by the above
bug. However this should only be an inelegance; a warning message that
you have to ignore.

Perhaps you have a further API problem with respect to GMF that does not
allow you to execute in the presence of validation warnings. I have not
tried using OCL from GMF, so if this is indeed a problem please raise a
GMF bug.

Regards

Hi Mostafa

Anyone can apply for a Bugzilla account, which will then allow you to
enter/comment on bugs.

You can ask on the GMF newsgroup for a solution.

One workaround would be to use a private version of org.eclipse.ocl iin
which you zap org.eclipse.ocl.options.ProblemOptions.CLOSURE_ITERATOR
from WARNING to OK.

Another is to include the

BasicEnvironment benv =
OCLUtil.getAdapter(ocl.getEnvironment(), BasicEnvironment.class);
benv.setOption(ProblemOption.CLOSURE_ITERATOR,
ProblemHandler.Severity.OK);

lines in the construction of a derived ValidationVisitor within your
generated GMF editor. I don't kwno how easy this is to do.

Another option is not to use closure(), in which case you have to code
your own recursive operation that uses iterate() to accumulate results
within a Set.
