Hello,
I successfully created some helpers in my UML environment. Now I would like to
create a operation with a sequence as parameter.
I get something like that,
[...]
variable = org.eclipse.ocl.uml.UMLFactory.eINSTANCE.createVariable();
variable.setType(getOCLStandardLibrary().getSequence());
variable.setName("sequence");
params.add(variable);
[...]
Operation myOperation = defineOperation(getOCLStandardLibrary().getOclAny(),
"myOperation",getBoolean(),params, constraint)
After I want to parse this query
"self.myOperation(Sequence{'aValueA','aValueB'})"
But my operation seems to be not identified. I get:
Cannot find operation (myOperation(Sequence(String))) for the type (NamedElement)
I tried with other type (boolean, string), and it works.
Do I have to precise the Type of the elements in the Sequence and how?
thanks a lots.

Hi, François,
The SequenceType instance needs to know what its element type is. Defining
the operation using the Sequence(T) generic type from the standard library
doesn't work because it doesn't know what its element type is.
Try this, instead:
[...]
variable = org.eclipse.ocl.uml.UMLFactory.eINSTANCE.createVariable();
variable.setType(org.eclipse.ocl.util.TypeUtil.resolveSequen ceType(
this, getOCLStandardLibrary().getString()));
variable.setName("sequence");
params.add(variable);
[...]
Operation myOperation =
defineOperation(getOCLStandardLibrary().getOclAny(),
"myOperation",getBoolean(),params,
constraint)
HTH,
Christian

Hi, François,
I'm glad it works, now.
About the documentation: sure, feel free to raise an enhancement request.
The current implementation uses "addOperation"; the defineOperation
approach would be a nice alternative. If you can provide a variant of the
current example that uses defineOperation, that would be particularly
helpful :-)
Cheers,
Christian
