Hi Christian,

concerning the bug 189981,I changed

but parsing did not succed. here is the exeption :(Cannot find operation
(getAllAttributes()) for the type (OclAny))
here is the value of helper.getContextClassifier()
"org.eclipse.ocl.uml.impl.AnyTypeImpl@1eac903 (name: <unset>, visibility:
<unset>) (isLeaf: false, visibility: public, isAbstract: false)"

So I added the "helper.setContext((Classifier)classifiers.get(0))"
the value of helper.getContextClassifier() is
"org.eclipse.uml2.uml.internal.impl.StereotypeImpl@f9d4f7 (name: Client,
visibility: <unset>) (isLeaf: false, visibility: public, isAbstract: false)
(isActive: false, isAbstract: false)"
but the same problem persist: ERROR in (operationCallExpCS): (Cannot find
operation (getAllAttributes()) for the type (Client)).
(isLeaf:
what sould I do?
thanks
asma

Hi, Asma,

That's bizarre. When I change the test_parseStereotypeConstraint() method
of the ProfilesTest class (in the org.eclipse.ocl.uml.tests plug-in) to
look like the following:

public void test_parseStereotypeConstraint() {
helper.setInstanceContext(testStereotype); // a Stereotype

try {
Constraint constraint = helper.createInvariant(
"self.getAllAttributes()->exists(name = 'yesno')");

// the 'Stereo1' Stereotype has an attribute named 'yesno'
assertTrue(ocl.check(testStereotype, constraint));
} catch (Exception e) {
fail("Failed to parse or evaluate: " + e.getLocalizedMessage());
}
}

it works just fine. So, I'm not sure what is different in your situation.

If you can send me a ZIPped up Eclipse project with an example of your code
that doesn't work, then I may be better able to figure out what's going
wrong.

Cheers,

Christian

Hi, Asma,

Testing this with your code that you sent me (thanks) revealed what I should
have seen sooner: that the stereotype constraint was attempting to access
the getAllAttributes() operation in the Client stereotype (which does not
exist) instead of in the Class metaclass that Client extends. It had
nothing to do with requiring setInstanceContext() which, actually, is not
correct; sorry about that.

So, you need the following:

self.base_Class.getAllAttributes()->select(name->exists(name='adresse'))- >size()>0

instead of

self.getAllAttributes()->select(name->exists(name='adresse'))- >size()>0

Then, everything should work as you expect. The constraint *seemed* to work
using the Ecore environment because it was looking at the metamodel: the
Stereotype EClass, which does defined a getAllAttributes() operation
(inherited from Classifier). It would pass because Client, itself, defines
an "adresse" attribute). However, the stereotype constraint needs to be
parsed at the model level because a profile is a UML model, so
setInstanceContext() is appropriate (as you tried, below). Just include
the navigation of the base_Class extension end and all should be well.

Cheers,

Christian

Hi Christian,
thank you very much the constraint is parsed very well!
but when I try to evaluate it using
ocl.evaluate(helper.getContextClassifier(),parsed);
or ocl.check((helper.getContextClassifier(),parsed) evaluation did not work
:((
the exeption is "no such property base_Class) but the stereotype Client has
a base_Class property !!!
the value of helper.getcontexteClassifier() is
"org.eclipse.uml2.uml.internal.impl.StereotypeImpl@b1be82 (name: Client,

Hi, Asma,

Have a look at the update of your project that I sent you.

When you evaluate an OCL constraint on a model element, you must evaluate it
on that element, not its metaclass.

Try this:

ocl.evaluate(<selected element>, parsed);
ocl.check(<selected element>, parsed);

Cheers,

Christian

Hi christian,

thank you very much. it works but only when I write this:

constraint parsed=null;
parsed=helper.createrInvariant(body);
a=ocl.check(objectselected,parsed) it works perfectly!
but when I change to:

org.eclipse.ocl.uml.OCLExpression parsed=null;
parsed = helper.createQuery(body);
a=ocl.check(objectselected, parsed);

it always return false and here is my console:
[OCL] Result : org.eclipse.uml2.uml.internal.impl.ClassImpl@adb3f (name:
Client1, visibility: <unset>) (isLeaf: false, visibility: public,
isAbstract: false) (isActive: false, isAbstract: false)
[OCL] Evaluate: self.base_Class.getAllAttributes()->select(temp1 : Property
| Set {temp1.name}->exists(temp2 : String |
temp1.name.=('adresse')))->size().>(0)
[OCL] Result : OclInvalid

thank you very much!

Hi, Asma,

You would want to use the helper.createInvariant(body) method, anyway, if
you're dealing with constraints, because it validates the well-formedness
of the constraint (including that it is a boolean-valued expression,
doesn't use @pre, etc.)

The query expression doesn't work for you because the helper returns an
OCLExpression that isn't contained by an ExpressionInOCL, which is required
in order to determine the context classifier and whether that classifier is
a stereotype. The consequence of this is that the query is evaluated on
the base Element (which doesn't make sense, resulting in OclInvalid)
instead of on the stereotype instance.

Cheers,

Christian
