I am working on a task where I need to convert UML diagram to a prototype in any language that I choose. I have created a diagram through eclypse papyrus and saved it as .uml file. It contains Use-case, state machine diagram and class diagram. Combining those should be enough to create a prototype - states represent screens and their follow-up. Class diagram provides info what each screen contains and use-case diagram provides info how is it to be used. I then wish to load the uml file to a java code. After a short research, eclipse uml2 package seem to be what I need - a tool for manipulating UML elements. Thus I managed to load the UML file and somehow print it part by part:
import org.eclipse.emf.common.util.TreeIterator;
import org.eclipse.emf.common.util.URI;
import org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EObject;
import org.eclipse.emf.ecore.resource.Resource;
import org.eclipse.emf.ecore.resource.ResourceSet;
import org.eclipse.emf.ecore.resource.impl.ResourceSetImpl;
import org.eclipse.emf.ecore.util.EcoreUtil;
import org.eclipse.uml2.uml.NamedElement;
import org.eclipse.uml2.uml.UMLPackage;
import org.eclipse.uml2.uml.resource.UMLResource;
import java.util.Collection;
import java.util.Iterator;
public class Loader {
public Loader(){
//default behaviour
ResourceSet set = new ResourceSetImpl();
set.getPackageRegistry().put(UMLPackage.eNS_URI, UMLPackage.eINSTANCE);
set.getResourceFactoryRegistry().getExtensionToFactoryMap()
.put(UMLResource.FILE_EXTENSION, UMLResource.Factory.INSTANCE);
Resource.Factory.Registry.INSTANCE.getExtensionToFactoryMap()
.put(UMLResource.FILE_EXTENSION, UMLResource.Factory.INSTANCE);
Resource res = set.getResource(URI.createFileURI("C:/Users/gopco/workspace-papyrus/Test/Test.uml"), true);
Resource model = set.createResource(URI.createFileURI("C:/Users/gopco/workspace-papyrus/Test/Test.uml"));
for (TreeIterator<EObject> stuffInModel = res.getAllContents();
stuffInModel.hasNext();) {
EObject eObject = stuffInModel.next();
System.out.println("--------------------------------------------");
System.out.println(eObject.eContents());
}
}
}
However, this produces the following output (part of it):

I cannot find clear description for this, how can I manipulate these objects? I need to determine which one is of what type (Eg. class, graph edge, actor, etc.) and according to that, create a UI representation - for example for a single state create a single screen. All I can find is commercial software converting UML to code, no opensource projects I could take inspiration from. Can somebody provide an example how to parse UML elements from .uml file and possibly process it (for examples, println is totally OK). Maybe it is described somewhere but I haven't found?
CodePudding user response：
Studying the docs, looking here and there on forums I was able to write some basic parser for the UML file. Right now it is parsing only a single element of state machine diagram, has unfinished list of possible attr names and just prints out the names and values, but I am adding it here if soomebody ever was looking for such code as it is hard to find some examples. It is possible that the way I am parsing it is not 100% correct, but it seems to be working.
