Hello everybody,
I am trying to create a profile with a Java program.
I can create a Stereotype, but I am unable to create the extension to a UML metaclass (I got a IllegalArgumentException).
The debug shows that StereotypeOperations.createExtension() throws this exception because metaclass.isMetaclass() is false.
Here is the code, it shows that indeed my metaclass isn't one (it comes from my searches on Internet) :
public class ShowBug {
private static final ResourceSet RESOURCE_SET = new ResourceSetImpl();
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
String JAR_FILE_ECLIPSE_UML2_UML_RESOURCES = "jar:file:/Users/marcadet/.eclipse/org.eclipse.platform_4.2.0_1211646801/plugins/org.eclipse.uml2.uml.resources_4.0.1.v20120913-1441.jar!/";
RESOURCE_SET.getPackageRegistry().put(UMLPackage.eNS_URI, UMLPackage.eINSTANCE);
RESOURCE_SET.getResourceFactoryRegistry().getExtensionToFactoryMap().put(
UMLResource.FILE_EXTENSION,UMLResource.Factory.INSTANCE);
Map<URI, URI> _resourceSetURIMap = RESOURCE_SET.getURIConverter().getURIMap();
URI uri = URI.createURI(JAR_FILE_ECLIPSE_UML2_UML_RESOURCES);
_resourceSetURIMap.put(URI.createURI(UMLResource.METAMODELS_PATHMAP), uri.appendSegment("metamodels").appendSegment(""));
String name = "Class";
Model umlMetamodel2 = (Model) load(URI.createURI(UMLResource.UML_METAMODEL_URI));
final Class metaclass = (Class) umlMetamodel2.getOwnedType(name);
System.out.println(name + " : " + metaclass.isMetaclass());
}
protected static Package load(URI uri) throws Exception {
Resource resource = RESOURCE_SET.getResource(uri, true);
return (Package) EcoreUtil.getObjectByType(resource.getContents(), Literals.PACKAGE);
}
}
What is wrong ?
Regards,
Dominique

Hi, Dominique,
The problem will be that the isMetaclass() API doesn't find the
<<metaclass>> stereotype applied to the class from the UML metamodel.
It seems that the application of the standard profile providing the
<<metaclass>> stereotype didn't resolve the reference to that profile.
Make sure that your resource set can properly resolve the location of
the standard profile. This will need a URI mapping for the
pathmap://UML2_PROFILES/ prefix, similar to what you did for the
pathmap://UML2_METAMODELS/ prefix.

Hi, Christian,
Thanks for your advice.
However, I've tried before, without success, with these 3 URI mappings instead of one :
_resourceSetURIMap.put(URI.createURI(UMLResource.LIBRARIES_PATHMAP), uri.appendSegment("libraries").appendSegment(""));
_resourceSetURIMap.put(URI.createURI(UMLResource.METAMODELS_PATHMAP), uri.appendSegment("metamodels").appendSegment(""));
_resourceSetURIMap.put(URI.createURI(UMLResource.PROFILES_PATHMAP), uri.appendSegment("profiles").appendSegment(""));
It's in the process of getting the code smaller while still showing the bug that I removed 2 of them.
I stll get a false result on isMetaclass() with these 3 URI mappings.
Regards,
Dominique

Hi, Dominique,
The <<metaclass>> stereotype is defined in the L2 profile. So, can you
check whether the pathmap://UML_PROFILES/StandardL2.profile.uml
resource is loaded in your ResourceSet? I think it mustn't be, still.
If that's the case, then you can debug the ResourceSetImpl's attempt to
load this resource to see why it isn't working. It's strange that you
can load the UML metamodel but not this profile; they are in the same
JAR and the mechanics are so similar.

Hi, Christian,
I've looked around in the code in the uml plugins, and found that the method UMLResourcesUtil.init() seems to be concerned with URI mappings of uml stuff. So I decided to call it explicitly, and that's it !
I don't know if it is the correct way, but "Class" is now a metaclass !
Here is the complete code for anyone having this problem :
import java.util.Map;
import org.eclipse.emf.common.util.URI;
import org.eclipse.emf.ecore.resource.Resource;
import org.eclipse.emf.ecore.resource.ResourceSet;
import org.eclipse.emf.ecore.resource.impl.ResourceSetImpl;
import org.eclipse.emf.ecore.util.EcoreUtil;
import org.eclipse.uml2.uml.Class;
import org.eclipse.uml2.uml.Model;
import org.eclipse.uml2.uml.UMLPackage;
import org.eclipse.uml2.uml.UMLPackage.Literals;
import org.eclipse.uml2.uml.resource.UMLResource;
import org.eclipse.uml2.uml.resources.util.UMLResourcesUtil;
public class GetUMLMetaclass {
public static void main( String[] args ) throws Exception {
ResourceSet resource_set = UMLResourcesUtil.init( new ResourceSetImpl() );
String JAR_FILE_ECLIPSE_UML2_UML_RESOURCES = "jar:file:/Users/marcadet/.eclipse/org.eclipse.platform_4.2.0_1211646801/plugins/org.eclipse.uml2.uml.resources_4.0.1.v20120913-1441.jar!/";
resource_set.getPackageRegistry().put( UMLPackage.eNS_URI, UMLPackage.eINSTANCE );
resource_set.getResourceFactoryRegistry().getExtensionToFactoryMap().put(
UMLResource.FILE_EXTENSION,UMLResource.Factory.INSTANCE );
Map<URI, URI> _resourceSetURIMap = resource_set.getURIConverter().getURIMap();
URI uri = URI.createURI( JAR_FILE_ECLIPSE_UML2_UML_RESOURCES );
_resourceSetURIMap.put(URI.createURI(UMLResource.LIBRARIES_PATHMAP), uri.appendSegment("libraries").appendSegment(""));
_resourceSetURIMap.put(URI.createURI(UMLResource.METAMODELS_PATHMAP), uri.appendSegment("metamodels").appendSegment(""));
_resourceSetURIMap.put(URI.createURI(UMLResource.PROFILES_PATHMAP), uri.appendSegment("profiles").appendSegment(""));
Resource resource = resource_set.getResource( URI.createURI( UMLResource.UML_METAMODEL_URI ), true );
Model umlMetamodel = (Model) EcoreUtil.getObjectByType(resource.getContents(), Literals.PACKAGE);;
final Class metaclass = (Class) umlMetamodel.getOwnedType( "Class" );
System.out.println( metaclass.isMetaclass() );
}
}
I've still have to find how to be independent of the location (and if possible of the version) of the org.eclipse.uml2.uml.resources plugin.

Hi, Dominique,
I'm glad you got it working! Thanks for the update.
Yes, UMLResourceUtil is intended for this purpose, to help configure
the UML APIs for stand-alone (Eclipse-free) execution.

OK, except that I'm not in a stand-alone execution environment.
My test code is a simple java project running inside Eclipse (and the final code will be in an eclipse plugin).
So, the UML APIs should be correctly configured when running inside Eclipse without calling UMLResourceUtil.init() ?

Even within Eclipse, you need to use UMLUtil#init(ResourceSet) if you
want to work with legacy resources. The method in UMLResourcesUtil will
work too; it just attempts to do a number of registrations that are
already done if you're running in Eclipse.
