Hi,

Using Eugenia and Ecore2GMF.eol, I am trying to remove a "Feature Label Mapping" from GmfMap without any real success. I am new to GMF and Eugenia in general and I am unsure how to navigate the GmfMap model. Any assistance would be really appreciated.

Kind regards

I'm using something like this to remove Feature Label Mappings myself, starting from the name of the Diagram Label:

var diagLabels = findDiagramLabelsByName(diagramLabelName);
var labelMappings = findLabelMappingsByDiagramLabels(diagLabels);

for (labelMapping in labelMappings) {
  if (labelMapping.isDefined()) {
    delete labelMapping;
  }
}


Basically, first you find the diagram labels by their name, and then look for the label mappings which include those labels. Once you have those, you can just delete them. I can't quite remember now why I checked that they were defined first, though: maybe it's not necessary.

You'll need these two operations:

operation findDiagramLabelsByName(labelName : String) : Collection {
  return GmfGraph!DiagramLabel.all.select(r|r.name = labelName);
}

operation findLabelMappingsByDiagramLabels(diagramLabels : Collection) : Collection {
  return GmfMap!LabelMapping.all.select(r|diagramLabels.includes(r.diagramLabel));
}

Hi Antonio,

Firstly, many thanks for your response; your suggestion worked perfectly and I achieved exactly what I wanted to.

I am finding it quite challenging to find documentation or guidance - for example, how did you know that the right objects were GmfGraph!DiagramLabel and GmfMap!LabelMapping ???

If you could point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it.

Best wishes,

Dan

Hi Dan,

Exeed should help a lot with this:

I also find the EPackage Registry view (part of Epsilon, IIRC) quite useful: you can inspect the structure of a registered metamodel without having to create an instance at all. Do not forget to hit "Refresh" after you open it: it is initially empty.
