Hi there,
When generating a new EMF project from an UML2 model (.uml2) I'm not
able to have the correct project if I'm having attributes in the
classes. For example:
In my uml2 xmi I have an attribute "capacity" with type "Integer" as
follows:
<ownedAttribute xmi:id="_94wrjHMJEdu_reEnBA_uiA" name="capacity"
visibility="package" isUnique="false"> <eAnnotations
xmi:id="_94wrjXMJEdu_reEnBA_uiA">
<details xmi:id="_94wrjnMJEdu_reEnBA_uiA" key="isAttribute"
value="true"/> </eAnnotations>
<eAnnotations xmi:id="_94wrj3MJEdu_reEnBA_uiA"
source="externalReference"> <details
xmi:id="_94wrkHMJEdu_reEnBA_uiA"
key="PetriNetsMM.ZGVzaWduOm5vZGU6OjpQcmltaXRpdmVUeXBlLkludGVnZXI="
value=""/>
<references xmi:type="uml:PrimitiveType"
href="PetriNetsMM.profile.uml2#_94wrZXMJEdu_reEnBA_uiA"/>
</eAnnotations>
<type xmi:type="uml:PrimitiveType"
href="PetriNetsMM.profile.uml2#_94wrZXMJEdu_reEnBA_uiA"/>
<lowerValue xmi:type="uml:LiteralString"
xmi:id="_94wrkXMJEdu_reEnBA_uiA" value="1"/> </ownedAttribute>
My profile file looks like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<uml:Profile xmi:version="2.0" xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI";
xmlns:ecore="http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore";
xmlns:uml="http://www.eclipse.org/uml2/1.0.0/UML";
xmi:id="_94wEUHMJEdu_reEnBA_uiA" name="PetriNetsMM">
<eAnnotations xmi:id="_94wEUXMJEdu_reEnBA_uiA" source="attributes">
<details xmi:id="_94wEUnMJEdu_reEnBA_uiA" key="version" value="0"/>
</eAnnotations>
<eAnnotations xmi:id="_94wEU3MJEdu_reEnBA_uiA" source="ePackages">
<contents xmi:type="ecore:EPackage"
xmi:id="_94wEVHMJEdu_reEnBA_uiA" name="PetriNetsMM_0"
nsURI="http:///PetriNetsMM_0_94p9sHMJEdu_reEnBA_uiA.profile.uml2";
nsPrefix="PetriNetsMM_0">
<eClassifiers xmi:type="ecore:EDataType"
xmi:id="_94wrYHMJEdu_reEnBA_uiA" name="PetriNetsMM__String"
instanceClassName="PetriNetsMM__String"/>
<eClassifiers xmi:type="ecore:EDataType"
xmi:id="_94wrYXMJEdu_reEnBA_uiA" name="PetriNetsMM__Integer"
instanceClassName="PetriNetsMM__Integer"/>
</contents>
</eAnnotations>
<elementImport xmi:id="_94wrYnMJEdu_reEnBA_uiA"
importedElement="_94wrZHMJEdu_reEnBA_uiA"/>
<elementImport xmi:id="_94wrY3MJEdu_reEnBA_uiA"
importedElement="_94wrZXMJEdu_reEnBA_uiA"/>
<ownedMember xmi:type="uml:PrimitiveType"
xmi:id="_94wrZHMJEdu_reEnBA_uiA" name="String"/>
<ownedMember xmi:type="uml:PrimitiveType"
xmi:id="_94wrZXMJEdu_reEnBA_uiA" name="Integer"/>
</uml:Profile>
The most annoying thing is that, when creating the EMF project, it
generates two .ecore files, one for the .uml2 project and another one
for the profile file. One .ecore file will have only the data types, and
the other will have my meta model with yet another strange thing: the
attributes are generated as EReference instead of EAttribute.
Any idea on how to solve this problem? Is there any special way of
defining Class attributes for ECore metamodeling purposes?
Thanks very much for you help in advance
