I created a model with EMF and generated an Eclipse plugin for this model.
In the plugin I can now define an instance of that model. But now I want do generate Java-code from this instance. How can I do this?
You should first create a GenModel from you eCore Model. New -> Create -> EMF Generator Model -> From eCore -> Select you eCore. Then click on the top-level element of this model and pick Generate All.
EDIT:
There is not way to directly generate Java from custom model. You have to use JET, Accelo or xTend2 to write you generator. Or, you can probably take a look at xText project.

In my application I have three layers:
Data (Entities and Data Access Objects)
Model (Managers)
Presentation (Views)
How can I setup Game Object Context that Model layer will include all Data layer dependencies and Presentation layer will include all Model&Data layers dependencies?
Is there any way to set parent component for Game Object Context?
You can add a GameObjectContext by right clicking in the Scene Hierarchy and selecting Zenject -> GameObjectContext. You can add one for data, model, and presentation. Then you just have to set the transform parents up the same way you want the container parents to be. From your description I think you probably want it like this:
Then you can add each installer by attaching a MonoInstaller to each context. You an also do all this dynamically using a FromSubContainerResolve inside a SceneContext installer as well, if you prefer.
I'm using Enterprise Architect and I wish to generate some class diagrams for a specific set of C++ objects within a massive project. By right clicking on a particular model and choosing Code Engineering from the context menu I can import the entire source directory for the project and generate class diagrams for all objects in the project.
I can also simply generate a class diagram for a single source file. However what I'd ideally like is to generate individual class diagrams for a particular set of files within the project (for example ones which only contain the text SNMP within their names). Can anyone help me apply this filter as the class diagram for the entire project is too large and unwieldy to manage in any capacity.
In Enterprise Architect once you have imported the entire model like you have already done you can create additional diagrams to show only the parts of the model you need. In fact I consider this normal practice.
First create a new diagram with Add->New View -> Class View & diagram.
Then drag only the classes you want from Model in the Project Browser onto the new Diagram.
If you comment your code using doxygen then you can generate these class diagrams automatically. Please look at our code at github/nvmecompliance/tnvme for example. I'm not sure if this directly applies to your case if the source code you are not going to modify..
I am using EMF to allow users to create instances of a particular type of model.
An instance of a model can have 0-* Things but I'd like to be able to predefine the available Things that the user can add to the instance so that they can't just create their own.
How would I go about creating the Things using the ecore model?
If a Thing was just a String then it would be fine - I could use Enums. But a Thing is a type of it's own and consists of other stuff (like a name, version etc.) and I don't know how to give a predefined set of these to the user to choose.
Any ideas?
You have the possibility to use constraints or *EOperation*s.
For a better usability you should use a own dialog implementation. An example of a own implementation with given choices you can find here:
How can I control which instances are available as choices when editing a property in the properties view?
You should also implement a own property source to support the properties editor:

I'm just starting on my first ASP.NET MVC project (it's actually extending an existing MVC project that uses 4.0 and Linq2SQL). What I'm looking for is a way to create an instance of a model every time a different model is created (i.e., saved to the database). I see an OnCreated() method in the generated code, but that's in a partial class, so I can't replace it/ override it.
Is there a way to tie things together like this? I feel like I've been working in Django so long (where I would use a signal) that I don't know the right term to search for.
EDIT: What I want to do -- every time an instance of Model A is saved to the database for the first time (and only the first time), I want to create an instance of Model B and save that to the database.
And it looks like OnCreated() doesn't have anything to do with that.
You can always override the save method.
class A(models.Model)
def save(self,**kwargs):
super(A,self).save(**kwargs)
if self.pk: #Primary Key is assigned only after the save.
B.objects.create()
return self
I need to run JET templates on a EMF model metadata - i.e. the model itself (not data) is input to my JET template.
More practically - I want generate non java code, based on EMF templates.
How I do it?
Thank you
I'm not sure I get you right, but you can pass your model just like any other object into the JET template (as described in the JET tutorial). Also, it makes no difference if you generate Java or any other text with JET. As an additional pointer, you might want to consider using Xpand (part of openArchitectureWare) for very comfortable model to text generation (including things like content assist for your model in the template editor).
For code generation, you could use Acceleo. That is like Xpand very comfortable model to text generation (Acceleo language is very intuitive for model browsing) and also less painful than JET.
