Hi,

I am trying to go through the Sirius Tutorial. My problems comes at the point, when it says: We have a sample model based on this DSL to get an instant feedback of the new modeling tool, but I cannot find the example.
I installed Sirius also the package Sirius Samples, however when I rightlick on the Model Explorer and go to New>Example... then the example for basicfamily does not appear.
Where can I find it?

Hi Alexander,

I have attached the metamodel plugins that can be used to execute the
tutorial.

Hi Esteban,

you are right, I am talking about the video on http://www.eclipse.org/sirius/getstarted.html.

I am having difficulties with your files, cause I don't know how to handle them.

What kind of project is the one with name basicfamily.sample, which can be seen in the Model Explorer view from the video? Can you provide the project, which contains the sample model?

Hi Alexander,

Indeed there miss some preleminary steps before following the video
tutorial that I list here :

1. Install Sirius using instructions from
http://www.eclipse.org/sirius/download.html
2. Install the optional feature "Sirius Samples" which include the Ecore
modeler to see a graphical representation of the metamodel as shown at
the beginning of the video
3. Import the family.zip in attachement, we should get 3 projects
corresponding to the DSL used in the video
4. Open the "org.eclipse.sirius.sample.basicfamily" project and double
click on basicfamily.aird in model folder, expand the chilren until
"basicfamily package entities" and double click on it to open the
graphical representation of the DSL as shown in the video
5. From these 3 plugin projects, launch a Eclipse runtime with
sufficient JVM memory, "-XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Xms40m -Xmx512m" for example.
6. In the runtime go to the Sirius perspective and create a Modeling
Project, paste in it the attached example.basicfamily. Here you can
browse your example model as shown in the video
7. From now you can follow the video to create your modeler based on
basicfamily DSL.

We will improve this get started to have these missing informations.
Thanks for your feedbacks.

Best Regards.

Hi,
I'm also trying to play with this tutorial. My problem appears when I try to expand the children until "basicfamily package entities". I can't find this package, and I wonder if this problem may come from my version of Eclipse (luna) or my installation of Sirius (through the marketplace) ... Do I miss something ?

Hi

First of all, thanks for your interest in Sirius.

The Sirius 0.9.0 release brings the correction of bug #420151 [1] which
moves the sample Ecore modeler into a separate feature and renames the
plugin org.sirius.pim.ecore.design into org.sirius.sample.ecore.design.

The aird file contained in the family.zip of the previous message still
references the Viewpoint "Design" from org.sirius.pim.ecore.design plugin.

You have to solutions:
. Right-clic the and clic on Viewpoints selection, then activate the
Viewpoint "Design", a "basicfamily package entities" diagram will be
available as shown in the video.
. Get the attached updated files, the aird file has been corrected.


Regards,

Maxime

Maxime,
I still have the same problems as Julien.
I imported the projects from the newly attached zip file, but I still cannot expand the model files, as described.
The other solution you propsed was
"Right-clic the and clic on Viewpoints selection, then activate the
Viewpoint "Design", a "basicfamily package entities" diagram will be
available as shown in the video."

but I must admit I didn't get your point.
Can you give me some further hints?
Regards and Thanks
Wolfgang

The aird files contain the representations (diagram, table, tree)
related data. The aird from the first attached zip references a
Viewpoint which has been moved to another plugin. The zip I attached
contains an aird whose URIs to the moved Viewpoint have been corrected.

Maxim,
thanks for your response, but unfortunately I am still not able to go ahead.
I used the latest family.zip and imported the contained projects.
But I am not able to expand the files basicfamily.aird, basicfamily.ecore and basicfamily.genmodel as shown in the video of the tutorial.
And I also cannot find the mentioned context menu "Viewpoints selection" for the project "org.eclipse.sirius.sample.basicfamily". My context menu doesn't contain a related entry.

I use "Kepler Service Release 1" and installed all Sirius items from "http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/releases/0.9.0/kepler"

What do I wrong?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Wolfgang

I think your active perspective is the Java one. You have to open the
Modeling [1] or Sirius [2] perspectives to get all the required views,
wizards and menu to use Sirius.

Hello,

I had the same problem (not being able to expand the files of basicfamily.aird) but with this new configuration :

> I use "Kepler Service Release 1" and installed all Sirius items from
> "http://download.eclipse.org/sirius/updates/releases/0.9.0/kepler"

I can now expand it and see the "basicfamily package entities"

But i can not go further: i don't know what location file to choose in the External tool location of my new run configuration

Any help please

Thanks in advance
Nawel

Hello,
I have similar problem. I've just dowloaded Eclipse Modeling Tools (Kepler SR1) and Sirius 0.9 from sirius official site.
I've used either family.zip from sirius site or the one attached by Maxime
Problem I'm facing is the following with both zip files:
- I can expand basicfamily.ecore and basicfamily.genmodel files
- I can't expand basicfamily.aird!
- when right clicking on org.eclipse.sirius.sample.basicfamily and selecting Viewpoint selection, there is nothing to select !

I should have missed something in my eclipse set up somewhere, but what and where?

Another request, is it possible to download the video from another site then youtube? My company is blocking YouTube, no way then to see it...

Thanks

In which perspective are you ? I think your active perspective is the
Java one. You have to open the Modeling [1] or Sirius [2] perspectives
to get all the required views, wizards and menu to use Sirius.

> Another request, is it possible to download the video from another site

It is now possible to download the video from [3] and it should be added
to the Sirius website soon.

I confirm I'm in Sirius perspective. same issue in Modeling perspective

in a previous message, you wrote:
>> 2. Install the optional feature "Sirius Samples" which include the Ecore
>> modeler to see a graphical representation of the metamodel as shown at
>> the beginning of the video

I did not find this feature, where can I find it ? Is it mandatory?
Is Ecore part of the 0.9 Sirius release ?

In the same message, you wrote:
>> >> 4. Open the "org.eclipse.sirius.sample.basicfamily" project and double
>> click on basicfamily.aird in model folder, expand the chilren until
>> "basicfamily package entities" and double click on it to open the

I imported project, I'm able to see aird file in model folder but nothing happened when I double click on it. I'm not able to expand it, I cannot then go further ...

It seems that my Eclipse config is not complete!
which resource is required to interpret aird file? where can I find it ?
Is it linked to the 'Sirius Samples' project ?

Thanks for your support

You should see the Sirius Samples (Incubation) item (child of the Sirius
item) in the Sirius 0.9 update site [1]

If Sirius is installed, and if you are in the Sirius or Modeling
perspective and in the Model Explorer view, the double clic on the aird
file should load and init the required elements and then you should be
able to expand it to open the contained diagram.

Sirius is required to interpret aird files. And for each aird, the
representation specification files (odesign, can be deployed in plugins)
are required to be able to display the contained representations

In the family sample case, the aird requires a sample Ecore Viewpoint
which is provided in the Sirius Sample feature.

Hi guys, I have some problems related to the same example, when I reach the point to create edges in the pallet there is a problem related the variables I use. For example, when I use
[not father.oclIsUndefined()/] I get "unrecognized variable " for "father". Similarly, I get the same message concerning the variables "members" and "parents".

Any suggestions?

I think you simply should write [not(father.oclIsUndefined())/]
