Hello,

I am trying to programmatically trigger OCL validation of my EMF model. Everything works well using the Eclipse environment (EMF model editor and instance viewer)

I use this code in my unit tests. After reading some posts in this forum, I added the following OCL initialization code in my setUp() method:

String oclDelegateURI = OCLDelegateDomain.OCL_DELEGATE_URI;

Operation.Internal.InvocationDelegate.Factory.Registry.INSTANCE.put(oclDelegateURI,
				new OCLInvocationDelegateFactory.Global());

EStructuralFeature.Internal.SettingDelegate.Factory.Registry.INSTANCE.put(oclDelegateURI,
				new OCLSettingDelegateFactory.Global());

EValidator.ValidationDelegate.Registry.INSTANCE.put(oclDelegateURI,
				new OCLValidationDelegateFactory.Global());


Then, in my test method i use the following:
// Validate this domain
Diagnostic diag = Diagnostician.INSTANCE.validate(myDomain);
assertNotNull(diag.getChildren());

for (Diagnostic subDiag : diag.getChildren()) {
	System.out.println(subDiag.getMessage());
}


I get the following validation diagnostics, which are both correct but the second one reveals that my OCL constraint has not been evaluated:
The feature 'environments' of 'com.xxx.root.impl.DomainImpl@35b57d0b{#//}' with 0 values must have at least 1 values
Unable to find delegate to evaluate the 'atLeastOneFlow' constraint on 'com.xxx.interaction.impl.InteractionTemplateImpl@27cb4b33{#///@interactionTemplates.0}': http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore/OCL/Pivot


Any idea?

Many thanks for your help,

Best Regards,

Hi

You've only provided only half a problem; no repro.

So I can only provide a half a reply; no solution.

Hi Ed,

I am sorry for not getting back to you earlier.

Please find attached a zip file containing a minimal project with a main class that:
- create an instance of a Test class
- triggers the validation of this instance

After execution, you will have in the console something like:
Diagnostic ERROR source=root code=0 An exception occurred while delegating evaluation of the 'check1' constraint on 'root.impl.TestImpl@3890c1ee{#//}': org/eclipse/ocl/examples/domain/elements/DomainElement data=[root.impl.TestImpl@3890c1ee (att1: 1, att2: 123)]


This is what i am struggling at...

If you can provide any help/hint regarding this error, that would be great,

Thx,

Best regards,

Hi

If you set a breakpoint on BasicDiagnostic, you can see that the "An
exception occurred while delegating evaluation of the" occurred because of a

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
org/eclipse/ocl/examples/domain/utilities/DomainUtil

which is nearly the same as
org/eclipse/ocl/examples/domain/elements/DomainElement

Try fixing the classpath.

Hi Ed,

Thx for your quick reply.
Thanks to your answer, i discovered that many jars were missing. I attached my updated project zip.

I nevertheless now get an exception in EObjectValidator.class (line 237):
org.eclipse.debug.core.DebugException: com.sun.jdi.ClassNotLoadedException: Type has not been loaded occurred while retrieving component type of array
.

Any clue?

Thx again,

Best Regards,

Where did this come from?

Hi,

I get this exception while stepping with the debugger in the EObjectValidator class line 237.
At the end (from my main class), the end result is the same as before.

What other info can I provide you on this problem to help you helping me?

Best Regards,

PS: Thx for the bug, i read its description and I agree that having more info when a validation fails because of missing entires in classpath would bgreat.

Hi

An exception is the first line of a diagnostic; where is the rest of it?

org.eclipse.debug.core.DebugException: com.sun.jdi.ClassNotLoadedException

is a very odd exception; it suggests that the debugger is malfunctioning
so the context may be very revealing.

See
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1367730/how-do-i-deal-with-a-classnotloadedexception-while-debugging.

Hi Ed,

Please find attached two screenshots of my current eclipse state where you will see the stacktrace i talked about.

I don't know what information I can add to help you...

Thx for your help,

Hi Ed,

Thx for your email.
I have carefully read the ForumNetiquette as you suggested.

Nevertheless, I have provided you with a zipped project containing the required files for demonstrating my problem which, since the beginning, is about getting some help on how to initialize the OCL framework. I am still struggling at this and was hoping to find some help in doing such an initialization (which, in my opinion, does not seem to be that special) in this forum.
I have added the two previous screenshots for illustrating the exception I have encountered as no stacktrace is being printed anywhere (as far as I know). By the way, there wasn't any stacktrace printed neither for the missing classpath entries and I thank you for creating and commenting the bug your created.

Regarding my initial problem, and as I still would like to use OCL in my project, would it be better (not to waste your time or other contributors' time) to ask for help specifically on a code snippet regarding OCL usage outside of Eclipse ?

If you want me to ask this question in another thread/forum, please feel free.

Thx for your time and help,

With my best regards,

Hi

Perthaps I should add "Don't ask follow on question".

When you write "Thanks to your answer, i discovered that many jars were
missing. I attached my updated project zip." I regard the thread as
complete and assu me that nsibnce you have resolved your problem you can
resolve your next one.

You cannot expect me to reread multiple levels of the thread.

Regards

Ed Willink

You would save yourself a lot of time if you read the documentation:

http://help.eclipse.org/kepler/topic/org.eclipse.ocl.doc/help/PivotStandalone.html?cp=38_6_2

requires standalone users to call Xtext setup.

If you test first in an envirionment where Eclipse helps, such as a Java
application with Manifest.mf controlled classpath you wouldn't have to
struggle with all those horrible paths and you would get

"Diagnostic ERROR source=root code=0 An exception occurred while
delegating evaluation of the 'check1' constraint on
'root.impl.TestImpl@e9f6ef{#//}': No registration for content type
'org.eclipse.ocl.examples.oclas.ecore' data=[root.impl.TestImpl@e9f6ef
(att1: 1, att2: 123)]
"

which is a clue that initialization/registration is rubbish.

If you add the missing

EssentialOCLStandaloneSetup.doSetup();

You get

"Diagnostic ERROR source=root code=0 The 'check1' constraint is violated
on 'root.impl.TestImpl@f0926b{#//}' data=[root.impl.TestImpl@f0926b
(att1: 1, att2: 123)]"

which is presumably what you want.

Ed Willink

Hi Ed,

Thanks a lot for your help, I indeed now get the correct diagnostic message.
I have attached to this reply the final zipped version of my project as it might be usefull to other users of this forum.

This topic is now resolved.

Thx again for your help and support.
