Hi Christian,


I managed to extend the standard library and added custom operations to
OCL during the development of MTL. For this, I defined a model really
close to what you did with oclstdlib.ecore and OCLStandardLibrary.java.
The implementation of these custom operations is in the
EvaluationEnvironment where I overrode CallOperation.

What I did not manage to do though, was to create a custom operation
which would return a typed sequence : my best try returned a
"Sequence(T)". This forces me to use "oclAsType" after each invocation
to accurately type the sequence.

The operation I defined is a "typed" eAllContents for EObject in order
to retrieve only the elements of a given type in the content tree of an
element : "eAllContents(EClassifier) : Sequence(T)". Obviously, the type
of the sequence content is known (EClassifier). Is there any way to
force the OCL parser to type that sequence without a subsequent call to
oclAsType?

Hi, Laurent,

I think that a solution for your problem is on the plan for the 1.3
release. See https://bugs.eclipse.org/179990 for details.

HTH,

Christian
