Hi there,

I'm having a problem with a UML profile, rbacUML, that I created using Rational Software Architect. The attached picture shows two stereotypes, «User» and «Role», that can be attached to a class. There is also a 0..* association between «User» and «Role».

Now, I can easily create classes stereotyped with «User» or «Role». Here is a code sample that create one of each:

Package root = (Package)element;
org.eclipse.uml2.uml.Class jSmith = root.createOwnedClass("John Smith", false);
org.eclipse.uml2.uml.Class student = root.createOwnedClass("Student", false);
						
Stereotype uSter = root.getAppliedProfile("rbacUML").getOwnedStereotype("User");
jSmith.applyStereotype(uSter);
Stereotype rSter = root.getAppliedProfile("rbacUML").getOwnedStereotype("RBACRole");
student.applyStereotype(rSter);


The problem is: how do I create an association between «User» on the class John Smith and «Role» on the class Student? I tried using setValue(...):

jSmith.setValue(jSmith.getAppliedStereotype("rbacUML::User"), "rBACRole", student.getAppliedStereotype("rbacUML::Role"));


... but I get the following exception:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: org.eclipse.uml2.uml.internal.impl.StereotypeImpl@38b938b9 (name: RBACRole, visibility: <unset>) (isLeaf: false, isAbstract: false) (isActive: false)

	at org.eclipse.emf.transaction.impl.AbstractTransactionalCommandStack.execute(Unknown Source)
	at org.eclipse.emf.transaction.impl.AbstractTransactionalCommandStack.execute(Unknown Source)
	at LDAPImporter.plugletmain(Unknown Source)



I guess the problem comes from the 0..* multiplicity? Can anyone help me create such an association?

Thank you very much!
