Generating OCLinEcore Code [message #1863656]

Sorry if this is a stupid question I'm still very new to OCL in general, but is there a way to automatically generate the OCLinEcore code displayed when opening an Ecore file using the OCLinEcore editor? Like, write a script to take an Ecore file as input and output the OCLinEcore code?

I'd very much appreciate any help with this or any existing examples of something similar if possible

The OCLinEcore editor is just a more friendly rendering of the Ecore and OCL embedded in annotations, so maybe you need nothing. Or maybe cut and paste, or maybe OCL->Save AS->OCLinEcore.

You ask about 'code' which to me suggests the Java code that can be generated from the OCL, but this is not shown in the editor so I suspect your usage of 'code' differs from mine and so I'm confused.

The displayed 'code' exists and is rendered by Open Source Java so it's certainly possible to do what you want.

The OCL Documentation has some examples, but probably not what you want. The OCL JUnit tests have all sorts of conversions in all sorts of directions. org.eclipse.ocl.examples.test.xtext.SerializeTests.testSerialize_RoyalAndLoyal_ecore uses a doSerialize to wrap ecore2as, as2cs and cs save so that RoyalAndLoyal.ecore is converted to RoyalAndLoyal.oclinecore.

Sorry for not being clear this is all new to me, but yes what I was wanted to get exactly was the rendering provided by OCLinEcore automatically serialized. The testSerialize_RoyalAndLoyal_ecore tests were exactly what I was looking for thanks you so much for the help :)
