All Implemented Interfaces:
Adaptable, EnvironmentFactory
Direct Known Subclasses:
PivotEnvironmentFactory

public abstract class AbstractEnvironmentFactory
extends java.lang.Object
implements EnvironmentFactory, Adaptable

Partial implementation of the EnvironmentFactory interface, useful for subclassing to define the OCL binding for a metamodel. This abstract class takes care of some of the more common (and mundane) chores, such as:

The subclass's responsibility (in addition to implementing any other interface methods not implemented here) is to define how to:

This class is intended to be extended by clients, for the purpose of implementing metamodel-specific environment factories.

See the EnvironmentFactory class for a description of the generic type parameters of this class.

                                           @NonNull
                                           Package context)
Creates an environment for the specified package context.

Parameters:
parent - the parent environment of the environment to be created

the new nested environment

                                                   Type context)
Description copied from interface: EnvironmentFactory
Creates an environment suitable for parsing OCL expressions in the specified context, which is some classifier in the client's model.

Specified by:
createClassifierContext in interface EnvironmentFactory
context - the context classifier
Returns:
the environment
See Also:
#createOperationContext(Environment, Object), #createAttributeContext(Environment, Object), EnvironmentFactory.createInstanceContext(Environment, Object)

createInstanceContext

@NonNull
public Environment createInstanceContext(@NonNull
                                                 Environment parent,
                                                 @NonNull
                                                 java.lang.Object context)
Description copied from interface: EnvironmentFactory
Creates an environment suitable for parsing OCL expressions on the specified context object, which is an instance of some classifier in the client's model.

The context may be an instance of a model class or a data type value on which an OCL expression would be evaluated. Note that the actual OCL context classifier (as an OCL type or classifier) will be inferred from the context instance according to the metamodel that the environment factory supports, if possible. If not possible, then the OclAny type is assumed.

Specified by:
createInstanceContext in interface EnvironmentFactory
context - the context object or value
Returns:
the environment

#createClassifierContext(Environment, Object), DomainStandardLibrary#getOclAny()

createOperationContext

@NonNull

                                                  Operation operation)
Description copied from interface: EnvironmentFactory
Creates an environment suitable for parsing OCL expressions on the specified operation, which is some operation in the client's metamodel. Note that operation contexts can be defined in the context of any classifier to which that operation is applicable.

Specified by:
createOperationContext in interface EnvironmentFactory
Parameters:
parent - the parent environment, defining the classifier context
operation - an operation in the client's metamodel

Description copied from interface: EnvironmentFactory
Creates an environment suitable for parsing OCL expressions on the specified property, which is some attribute in the client's metamodel. Note that attribute contexts can be defined in the context of any classifier in which that attribute is available.

isEvaluationTracingEnabled

protected boolean isEvaluationTracingEnabled()
Queries whether tracing of evaluation is enabled. Tracing logs the progress of evaluation to the console, which may be of use in diagnosing problems.

In an Eclipse environment, tracing is also enabled by turning on the org.eclipse.ocl/debug/evaluation debug option.

Returns:
whether evaluation tracing is enabled
See Also:
setEvaluationTracingEnabled(boolean)

setEvaluationTracingEnabled

public void setEvaluationTracingEnabled(boolean b)
Sets whether tracing of evaluation is enabled. Tracing logs the progress of parsing to the console, which may be of use in diagnosing problems.

In an Eclipse environment, tracing is also enabled by turning on the org.eclipse.ocl/debug/evaluation debug option.

param b whether evaluation tracing is enabled

isEvaluationTracingEnabled()

getAdapter

public <T> T getAdapter(java.lang.Class<T> adapterType)

Subclasses may override or extend this implementation.

Specified by:
getAdapter in interface Adaptable
Type Parameters:
T - the requested adapter interface
Parameters:
adapterType - the requested adapter interface
Returns:
an instance of the requested interface, or null if this environment does not adapt to it
