Hello, I'm working with an XSD-derived model, where I have the following complexType:

<xs:complexType name="IntervalType">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element ref="xcal:dtstart" minOccurs="0"/>
<xs:element ref="xcal:duration" minOccurs="0"/>
<xs:element ref="xcal:uid" minOccurs="0"/>
<xs:element ref="strm:streamPayloadBase" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>

I'm trying, in QVTO, to assign to "streamPayloadBase", which is abstract:

<xs:complexType name="StreamPayloadBaseType" abstract="true">
<xs:annotation>
<xs:documentation>Abstract class to convey a payload for a stream. When a Stream is transformed to or from a WS-Calendar Interval, the contents of the Stream Payload defined element are transformed into the contents of a WS-Calendar artifactBase.</xs:documentation>
</xs:annotation>
</xs:complexType>

I'm using this syntax:

object IntervalType{
streamPayloadBase += OrderedSet {
object SignalPayloadType {}
}
};

where "SignalPayloadType" is a concrete child of "StreamPayloadBaseType". However, I cannot do this, since I get the error:

"Property 'streamPayloadBase' is read-only"

How can I solve this problem?

Thanks a lot,
Daniele Pala

Hi

It may be appropriate to start with XSD for external compatibility, but
as soon as you convert to Ecore you can join the grown ups and use models.

It would appear that your Ecore model has a readonly attribute
prohibiting the change. You may investigate whether this is an XSD to
Ecore conversion anomally, or just correct it. You should then be good
to go.

Without a *.ecore to look at it's hard to comment further.

Thanks for your reply. Actually I found that, along with 'streamPayloadBase' which is read-only, there is a property 'streamPayloadBaseGroup', which is a sequence of 'EFeatureMapEntry'...but probably I must use a backbox operation to deal with this EFeatureMap stuff, right?

Best regards,
Daniele Pala

The fact that 'streamPayloadBase' is read-only is correct however, since only its 'concrete childs' must be settable...like SignalPayloadType...probably this can only be done via EFeatureMaps Sad
