Hi
To put it in a nutshell:
I am desperately trying to add a double/float value to an instance
specifications Slot (programmatically). I know how its done for UML
Literals such as String, Integer...
For example Boolean values:
------------------------
//defProp, Ispec, value etc are defined earlier in the code...
Slot slot = Ispec.createSlot();
slot.setDefiningFeature(defProp);
LiteralBoolean valspec = (LiteralBoolean) slot.createValue("",
(PrimitiveType) ((Model) metamodel).getMember("Boolean"),
UMLFactory.eINSTANCE.getUMLPackage().getLiteralBoolean());
valspec.setValue(value);
-------------------------
This works fine!
So how can I change this code for a value which is a floating point
number such as Double, Float...? Can someone please give me a hint? :-)
How to get the "Type" and the "Eclass" for the "createValue" method? The
documentation is not very clear (at least to me)
cheers
Philipp

Hi
Real was first introduced in UML 2.4 to remove the clumsiness whereby
different UML-based languages such as OCL, QVT, MOFM2T etc needed to
have different PrimitiveTypes.
The Indigo MDT/UML2 is UML 2.2 so no Real.
Your options:
encode reals as strings
add a LiteralReal class
adjust the UML 2.4 meta-model from the OMG spec
wait for UML 2.4 support

Hi,
Thanks a lot for the answer! It explains why I could not find anything
in the UML specs....
I have already implemented the "encoding solution" which is a nice
workaround for my problem.
best regards
