Re[2]: [emf-dev] searching the object by id
|
Hello Frank
Sorry that I write here again (and I'll write to newsgroup too), but I
need to solve this problem as soon as possible. So I am asking for
help wherever I can.
Thanks for your useful reply. I've read the chapter 13, but although
I've found there lot of useful information, it has not helped me
solving my problem.
In that book is written that getURIFragment() uses XML-path like
locator. But it seems to be a little different to a W3C XPath, because
instead of node[0] there is @node.0 etc. And the locator written in
the following code is not working:
Java code:
==========
Resource resource = new XMLResourceImpl(URI.createURI(fileName));
XMLResource.XMLMap xmlMap = new XMLMapImpl();
xmlMap.setNoNamespacePackage(ProjectPackage.eINSTANCE);
Map options = new HashMap();
options.put(XMLResource.OPTION_XML_MAP, xmlMap);
resource.load(options);
Project project = (Project) resource.getContents().get(0);
Sheet s = (Sheet) project.getSheets().getSheet().get(0);
// this will print:
// //@sheets/@sheet.0/@properties
System.out.println(resource.getURIFragment(s.getProperties()));
// returns the 's' object
Object o1 = resource.getEObject("//@sheets/@sheet.0/@properties");
// this throws an exception :-( (instead of returning the 's' object)
Object o2 = resource.getEObject("//@sheets/@sheet[id=sheet1074095906796]/@properties");
XML file:
=========
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project id="String" version="String">
<sheets>
<sheet id="sheet1074095906796">
<properties>
<print/>
<name>New Sheet</name>
</properties>
<panels/>
</sheet>
<sheet id="sheet1074095906797">
<properties>
<print/>
<name>New Sheet</name>
</properties>
<panels/>
</sheet>
</sheets>
</project>
Please help me, how can I solve this problem. I don't want to iterate
through the list of object, because there will be lot of nested lists.
And before I've read about getEObject() method, I've used
org.apache.commons.beanutils.PropertyUtils.getProperty():
Sheet s = (Sheet) PropertyUtils.getProperty(project,
"sheets.sheet[0].properties.name");
This works exactly like that XPath-like selection - it uses only index
parameters too (sheet[0]).
2. Question: which of those two methots are more effective?
Thanks in advance

FB> Martin,
FB> Resource.getEObject() locates an object by URI fragment which can either be
FB> a path or an ID. You can set ID's for objects using XMLResource.setID() or
FB> you can set the isID attribute of a feature itself. This is all covered in
FB> Chapter 13 of the EMF book.
FB> You should ask this kind of question on the EMF newsgroup instead of here.
FB> Actually, there have already been various discussions on the topic of IDs
FB> there, which you should find helpful.
FB> Frank.

FB> Please respond to
FB> emf-dev
FB> Hello
FB> I am using EMF for serialization / deserialization of data holding
FB> objects into / from a XML file.
FB> Suppose, I have a XML file:
FB> <project>
FB> <someItem id='345' value='a' />
FB> <someItem id='666' value='b' />
FB> <someItem id='12' value='c' />
FB> </project>
FB> I am possile to get the correct SomeItem object:
FB> Project project = (Project) resource.getContents().get(0);
FB> Iterator iter = project.iterator();
FB> while (iter.hasNext()) {
FB> SomeItem item = (SomeItem) iter.next();
FB> if (item.getId().equals("666")) {
FB> System.out.println("Found: value = " + item.getValue());
FB> break;
FB> }
FB> }
FB> My answer is: it is possible to find value of that item if I know the
FB> id directly - something like this?:
FB> Project project = (Project) resource.getContents().get(0);
FB> SomeItem item = project.getItemById("666");
FB> ...
FB> I al looking for a method like getItemById - can EMF generate one for
FB> me - if yes, then how can I achieve this?
FB> Has an id some special meaning or is it jus a normal attribute? I am
FB> expecting that the id attribute has to be unique, of course.
FB> Or is there (somewhere) some another method which helps me in to find that
FB> item?
