[SOLVED][EUGENIA] generate EMFText model [message #1110766]

Hi,
I am analysing how to generate an EMFText syntax model in a similar way that GMF models are generated with Eugenia. For this purpose I have created an EOL file and ECore2EMFTextDelegate.java where EOL file is specified and ECore, Genmodel and EMFText models are loaded.
For testing, I have also created a run configuration that loads same models and executes eol file. This run configuration generates successfully the syntax model. The content of the file is the following:

SYNTAXDEF system
FOR <http:es.ikerlan/system>
START System

OPTIONS {
	reloadGeneratorModel = "true";
}

But the problem comes when the eol is executed in a second Eclipse instance (I have added the GeneratedEMFTExtDelegate to a extended "org.eclipse.epsilon.eugenia" plugin, adding new actions, etc.). The syntax model is generated but the file is not correct:

SYNTAXDEF system
FOR <//system> 
START System

OPTIONS {
	reloadGeneratorModel = "true";
}

The problem is that instead of namespace URI //system appears, and I don't find the reason. The contents of my GenerateEMFTextDelegate are:

...
@Override
	public String getBuiltinTransformation() {
		return "transformations/ECore2EMFText.eol";
	}

	@Override
	public String getCustomizationTransformation() {
		return "ECore2EMFText.eol";
	}
	
	@Override
	public EugeniaActionDelegateStep getStep() {
		return EugeniaActionDelegateStep.emftext;
	}
	
	@Override
	public List<IModel> getModels() throws Exception {
		List<IModel> models = new ArrayList<IModel>();
		models.add(loadModel("ECore", gmfFileSet.getEcorePath(), EcorePackage.eINSTANCE.getNsURI(), true, false, false));
		models.add(loadModel("GenModel", gmfFileSet.getGenModelPath(), GenModelPackage.eINSTANCE.getNsURI(), true, false, true));
		models.add( loadModel("EMFText", gmfFileSet.getEMFTextPath(), ConcretesyntaxPackage.eINSTANCE.getNsURI() , false, true, true));
		return models;
	}

	@Override
	public String getTitle() {
		return "Generating EMFText model";
	}

...

This can be an error of cross references between ECore and Genmodel models? How can I resolve it?
Thank you for your attention!

Hi Xabi,

Could you please put together a minimal example [1] we can use to reproduce this?

Cheers,
Dimitris

Hi Dimitris,

The version of Epsilon that I'm using is the last interim version (1.1.0).

In this post I have attached two eclipse projects:

es.ikerlan.generateEMFText: a plugin that contains basically source code of eugenia (delegates that are not needed are not included) and a new delegate for generating EMFText models (GenerateEMFTextDelegate.java). This one executes ECore2EMFText.eol file (in transformations folder) and generates an EMFText model from ecore and genmodel models.
This project is executed within a second instance of eclipse and adds a new action in the contextual menu that appears right clicking an ecore model.

example: a EMF plugin where the models are specified. This plugin should be imported in the workspace of the second eclipse instance.

Reproducing the error:

If GenerateEMFText.launch is executed (in transformations folder of es.ikerlan.generateEMFText), the EMFText model is generated in models folder. Even if the .cs model is incomplete, the generated part is valid:

SYNTAXDEF system
FOR <http//es.ikerlan/system>
START System


OPTIONS {
	reloadGeneratorModel = "true";
}


RULES {
}

Then, a second instance of eclipse is executed, running also es.ikerlan.generateEMFText plugin. After importing example project to the second instance's workspace, make a right click over model.ecore selecting Generate EMFText model (CS) from the contextual menu. The generation is executed creating model.cs in same folder. Generated model is not correct: //system appears instead of http//es.ikerlan/system

SYNTAXDEF system
FOR <//system>
START System


OPTIONS {
	reloadGeneratorModel = "true";
}


RULES {
}

As the generation is successfull using a launch configuration, seems that the error is caused by the code of es.ikerlan.generateEMFText plugin, but I don't find where.

Thanks,
Xabi.

Hi Xabi,

For some reason, the order in which you load the models seems to be important (!!!). I suspect that this has to do something with the way EMFText handles URIs (if you save your .cs model as XMI and open it with a text editor you should notice some non-standard URIs). In any case, reordering your models in GenerateEMFTextDelegate so that they are loaded in the same order as your launch configuration seems to be doing the trick:

models.add(loadModel("EMFText", gmfFileSet.getEMFTextPath(), ConcretesyntaxPackage.eINSTANCE.getNsURI() , false, true, false));
models.add(loadModel("GenModel", gmfFileSet.getGenModelPath(), GenModelPackage.eINSTANCE.getNsURI(), true, false, true));
models.add(loadModel("ECore", gmfFileSet.getEcorePath(), EcorePackage.eINSTANCE.getNsURI(), true, false, false));

Cheers,
Dimitris
