Hi,

i'm trying to perform a M2M-transformation from an Java-Model (created with MoDisco) to an UML-Model.

My Problem: If i try to set the owner of a UML::Property i always get the error message "Feature owner is not changeable". I know that in the UML Metamodel owner is declared as not changeable, but despite that is there a way to set the owner during the transformation? Perhaps to force ATL to set this attribute?

I already tried to set the ownedAttribute-Field of an UML::Class to the corresponding attributes of the Java-Modell, but that didn't work either.

So, i hope that there is a possibility to force ATL to set this owner-Field.

Thanks for your answers!

Best regards,
Stoehm

Hi

The UML meta-model has a variety of subset properties and generally you
can only change one of them.

I suggest checking that you add to the container from which the subsets
are built.

Hi Ed,

thanks for your answer. But i think i dont get it.

Now i've tried it that way:

rule Class2Class {
	from
		jClassDeclaration : JAVA!ClassDeclaration,
		jClassModifier : JAVA!Modifier (
			jClassDeclaration.modifier = jClassModifier
		)
	to
		umlClass : UML!Class (
			name <- jClassDeclaration.name,
			package <- jClassDeclaration.package,
			visibility <- jClassModifier.getVisibility(),
			isAbstract <- jClassModifier.isAbstract(),
			isLeaf <- jClassModifier.isFinal(),
--			isActive <-
--			elementImport <- 
--			packageImport <- 
--			clientDependency <-
--			nestedClassifier <- 
--			ownedOperation <-
			ownedAttribute <- jClassDeclaration.bodyDeclarations->select(e | e.oclIsKindOf(JAVA!FieldDeclaration))
--			ownedConnector <- 
--			ownedPort <- 
--			generalization <-
--			general <-
--			interfaceRealization <-
--			superClass <- jClassDeclaration.superClass.type
--			_ <- jClassDeclaration.superInterfaces
		)
}


But I always get the warning "Cannot set feature ownedAttribute to value ... containment references cannot span across models."

I don't know whats the Problem with that transformation. In an other transformation I do it that way: packagedElement <- jPackage.ownedElements and that works fine.

Hi

Cross-resource containment is a different issue. I think it's normally
disabled because it's expensive but you can enable it when you genmodel.
However the message may indicate something nastier like putting an input
element ion an output resource. I've never been able to understand ATL
so I cannot help you on ATL-specific subtleties.

are you sure you do have a rule to transform "jClassDeclaration.bodyDeclarations->select(e | e.oclIsKindOf(JAVA!FieldDeclaration))" to UML properties ?

Yes, i'm sure.
Here it is. By the way thisModule.resolveTemp doesn't work either.

rule Attribute2Property {
	from
		jFieldDeclaration : JAVA!FieldDeclaration,
		jModifier : JAVA!Modifier
			(jModifier.bodyDeclaration = jFieldDeclaration)
	to
		umlProperty : UML!Property (
			name <- jFieldDeclaration.fragments->collect(e | e.name),
			visibility <- jModifier.getVisibility(),
			class <- thisModule.resolveTemp(jFieldDeclaration.abstractTypeDeclaration, 'umlClass')
--			owner <- jFieldDeclaration.abstractTypeDeclaration.refImmediateComposite()
--			class <- jFieldDeclaration.abstractTypeDeclaration.refImmediateComposite()
		)
}

I got the same problem.
For me the cause was that in the ecore file I used, the associations were not declared as containments.
Checking "is Contaiment" in the ecore editor for your different associations should resolve the problem.

Hi again,

i solved the Problem two Month ago, and i only want to post the answer for that Problem.

The Key was the FieldDeclaration2Property-Transformation. I matched FieldDeclaration AND Modifier, and so the created Properties didn't go into the ownedAttribute because of the Modifier-Match.

Now my Rule FieldDeclaration2Property works without the Modifier-Match and the Properties are all on the place where they should be Smile

Greetings,
Stoehm
