Execute native OCL query in qvt-o code [message #1221472]

Hi,

My question about who to run/execute native OCL query in qvt-o code.

For instance, I have got one model element of the input model with string attribute that has OCL query to be used in navigating input model as well as return a list of candidate model elements to be refactored. So now I have OCL query in form of String and I need to execute it on qvt-o code.

What is the required library/tool/buit-in functionality to do that? or should I parse this string and build up and qvt helper/query based on the OCL String attribute

your advice please

Thanks

Hi

I am not entirely clear why QVTo cannot parse your OCL in the first
place of why you don;t use a Complete OCL document of OCLinEcore...

But if none of those work, you need the String::parse/evaluate method
that I am still thinking about.

Thank you Ed for your reply

let me elaborate my question:

in the input model their is a stereotype with string attribute holding OCL query (not imputative OCL) and I need to parse and execute it to get the result (element(s) from another model) in order to complete transformation.

So I got OCL in form of string, how to parse it in QVT-O at run time.

Is it possible to import OCL libraries in qvt-o code something like this :

thanks

Hi

If the OCL is in a disciplined context such as a stereotype, the tooling
should be able to use it.

Hi,

is it possible to import OCL API i.e. OCLHelper in a qvt-o directly to parse OCL query expressions that is embedded in source models instead of using Java code and access it using black-box?

thanks

Hi

No. To use things from QVTo they must use a QVTo language API. OCLHelper
is part of an OCL tooling API. Use black box.
