Enumeration question and translation issue [message #1003767]

Hi, I am glad that I was able to log on to this forum.

My current work involves translating XML file into EMF file.

My first question: enumeration

In my xml file there is

<componentType id="">

<componentKind> software | hardware </componentKind>

</componentType>

In this case, this means that I have to use enumeration... so what I have done is

I declared cKind enum as

enum Ckind{

software;
hardware;

}

Is this a valid way of specifying enumeration type?

Second question...

I have a thing called domain, which has to put component and its affixed things (port etc.) into the domain. We find specific component instance by looking at its ID. So what I have done is:

@gmf.node(label="name", border.width="5")
class ComponentType{

attr int ID;
attr String name;
attr String desc;
attr Ckind componentKind;

@gmf.affixed(foo="bar")
val InterfaceInstance[*] interfaceInstances;

}

@gmf.node(label="name")
class ComponentInstance{

attr int ID;
attr Trust trust;
attr String name;
attr String desc;

ref ComponentType componentTypeLink;
//The interface instance that are same as interface instance that its type has
@gmf.affixed(foo="bar")
ref ComponentType#interfaceInstances interfaceTypeLink;
}

You can see that ComponentInstance has ID.

So the domain somehow has to include some specific componentInstance or all of the componentInstance drawn on the diagram.

I think using compartment would work in this case. But I would like to know some other ways I might do this (referring to specific attributes etc.)

Thank you!
