Hello,
I have a graphical editor created with Obeo Designer and an Acceleo-based generator that generates text files from UML classes.
When I debug my application locally from Obeo, everything works fine.

But if I build my application using Maven and then install it on Obeo Designer as a plugin, then, whenever I try to generate a text file using my Acceleo-based generator, I get the following exception:

java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -1

I attached parent pom.xml and pom.xml file of Acceleo-based generator.

Could anyone,please, tell me what can be the reason?
Or, maybe, someone has an example of Acceleo generator that was built with maven and that works on Obeo Designer 6.2?

Thanks in advance,
Mary

Hi

THe debugger is your friend.

When you get an exception such as java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException
find out what the string was/wasn't where it did/didn't come from and
why the index is rubbush.

Usually you will find an unresolved proxy is involved.

Hello,
Thank you for the reply!

Using the debugger I found out that the exception occurs when my .emtl file is parsed.
When EModelElementImpl executes the following code of the method eObjectForURIFragmentSegment(String uriFragmentSegment)

      int index = uriFragmentSegment.lastIndexOf("%");
      boolean hasCount = false;
      if (index == length - 1 || (hasCount = uriFragmentSegment.charAt(index + 1) == '.'))
          {
            // Decode all encoded characters.
            //
            String source = URI.decode(uriFragmentSegment.substring(1, index));
            
            // Check for a count, i.e., a '.' followed by a number.
       .......

where uriFragmentSegment is equal to "%". It fails on uriFragmentSegment.substring(1, index)).... that makes sense.

But what can I do in order to avoid this issue?

"%" appears in my .emtl file in the following section:

<eAnnotations source="positions.1" references="/0/generateInterface/%">
<details key="start" value="193"/>
<details key="end" value="237"/>
<details key="line" value="6"/>
</eAnnotations>

where generateInterface is the name of my template

Thanks in advance

Best regards,
Mary

Hello,
I think now that my issue may be similar to this one:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=421341

Here, they say that an Acceleo generator built with EMF 2.9+ cannot be executed on earlier versions of EMF.

Hence, my new question is: how can I say explicitly in Maven, which version of EMF should be used for Acceleo build?
Or, maybe, I missed something...?

Thanks in advance

Best regards,
Mary
