stereotype's property [message #28380] Wed, 20 June 2007 19:20 Go to next message

Hi,
I have a stereotype named A with an attribute named origin,
I want to get origin's value in my model (I have to specify a constraint on
this value)
so when I apply my stereotype to my connector (this stereotype extends the
meta class Connector) I added the value using the properties menu when I
select myconnector :(I get a new submenu (other than UML in my proprerties
menu) which has the same name of my stereotype (A))

I try this OCL expression but it did not work:
context = myconnecter
self.getValue(self.getAppliedStereotype('A'),'origin')
it returns Invalid Class.
my defaut value is (0,0) (defined in the stereotype A) this Expression
works:
self.getAppliedStereotype().attribute->select(name='origin').default
it returns (0,0)

So how could I get the value of my property?

thanks
asma

Hi, Asma,

If you are using the Ecore environment, then the best way is to use the
non-conformant getAppliedStereotype(...) API. This requires the
*qualified* stereotype name:

self.getValue(self.getAppliedStereotype('MyProfile::A'),'ori gin')

(assuming that your profile is named "MyProfile.")

However, using the UML environment, you can use OCL's ability to navigate
non-navigable association ends (a metaclass Extension is an Association):

self.extension_A.origin

You can check first that the A stereotype is applied by doing:

not self.extension_A.oclIsUndefined()

HTH,

Christian

Hi christian,

thank you very much! it works with the second suggestion:

self.getValue(self.getAppliedStereotype('a::A'),'origin')

I used the ocl console to check my constraint before adding it to the model
(new constraint...)
so I writed my constraint in the ocl console (I used ocl 1.1M7) and it
worked normally (it used ecore environement)
I saw that get getAppliedStereotype() needs a qualified name but I did not
know what that means ;)

Now, I added the constraint to my model and I validate (it works perfectly
cause I used ecore environement)

thank you again christian ;-)
