* The profile provides the DSML basics for UML-RT
 +
* The code generator translates the UML-RT model into C++ source code
 +
* The runtime service library provides the framework and infrastructure to be able to execute the code generated from UML-RT models The runtime service library also provides a UML model library of UML-RT constructs that are useful when modeling.

 +
== 8. &laquo;WORKAROUND&raquo; IN CASE OF DUPLICATE MENUS ==
 +
 
 +
'''&laquo;WORKAROUND&raquo;'''
 +
 
 +
 
 +
For older installation, there is a possibility that duplicate menu items (especially context menu items) appear in the user interface. This is due to &quot;legacy&quot; plugins that are brought into the installation through incorrect dependencies. These plugins are (where &quot;xxx&quot; are a date identifier: YYYYMMDDHHmm):
 +
 
 +
 
 +
* org.eclipse.papyrus.umlrt.properties_1.1.0.xxxxxxxxxxxx.jar
 +
* org.eclipse.papyrus.umlrt.ui_1.1.0.xxxxxxxxxxxx.jar
 +
* org.eclipse.papyrus.umlrt.validation_1.1.0.xxxxxxxxxxxx.jar
 +
* org.eclipse.papyrus.umlrt.wizard_1.1.1.1.0.xxxxxxxxxxxx.jar
 +
 
 +
If this occurs, this situation is easily remedied by following these steps:
 +
 
 +
 
 +
# Shut down Eclipse
 +
# Start a terminal (shell)
 +
# Go to the folder where you installed Eclipse, in step 1.1 If you followed the recommendation, that would be &quot;'''cd ~/Apps/Papyrus-RT'''&quot;
 +
# Change directory to the plugins directory: &quot;'''cd eclipse/plugins'''&quot;
 +
# Remove all the unneccessary plugins: &quot;''''rm -rf org.eclipse.papyrus.umlrt.''&quot;''*
 +
# Start up Eclipse
 +
 
 +
The same result can be accomplished using a file browser, being careful on the files to be removed!
 +
 
 +
 
 +
The duplicate menus should now be gone.

Installing Papyrus for Real Time

This tutorial will show you how to install Papyrus for Real Time.


Note: You will need Java 1.7 installed.


Note: The instructions in this tutorial are illustrated using Linux. Steps and images may differ slightly if the installation is done on a different operating system (both Windows and Mac OS are supported for developing models). Some of these differences have been indicated when known, but some may also be missing.


1. Install a base Eclipse platform

First, we will install a base Eclipse package upon which we will be able to add the required software component for Papyrus for Real Time.


Note: If you are installing into an existing Eclipse workbench, skip this step and go directly to step 2.


1.1 Install a base Eclipse package

  1. Go to http://eclipse.org/downloads/
  2. Download the "Eclipse IDE for Java Developers" package for your operating system
  3. Decompress the downloaded archive to a folder such as "~/Apps/Papyrus-RT" (folder name and location will vary depending on operating system)

Note: The base Eclipse IDE for Java Developers package does not include Papyrus, which is the base for Papyrus for Realtime. We will need to install Papyrus for Real Time after this base package is installed


PapyrusRT-install-a-base-eclipse-package.png

1.2 Start Eclipse

  1. Go to the folder where you extracted Eclipse (from the previous step)
  2. Run "eclipse" (the executable name and representation may vary depending on operating system - Linux shown below)
PapyrusRT-start-eclipse.png

1.3 Eclipse is now running

The "Welcome" view is the default view after installing Eclipse.


PapyrusRT-eclipse-is-now-running.png

2. Install Papyrus

Now that a base Eclipse environment is installed and available, we will install the remaining components needed for Papyrus for Real Time.


The base for Papyrus for Real Time is, of course, Papyrus UML. Since the base Eclipse IDE for Java Developers package we installed in the previous steps does not include Papyrus, let's install it first.


2.1 Install New Software

  1. Select the "Help > Install New Software" menu item
PapyrusRT-install-new-software.png

2.2 Select to install Papyrus UML

  1. From the "Work with" field's drop-down menu, select "Mars - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/mars"
  2. In the "Type filter text" field, type "Papyrus"
  3. Select "Papyrus UML" from the results
  4. Click [Next]

8. «WORKAROUND» IN CASE OF DUPLICATE MENUS

«WORKAROUND»


For older installation, there is a possibility that duplicate menu items (especially context menu items) appear in the user interface. This is due to "legacy" plugins that are brought into the installation through incorrect dependencies. These plugins are (where "xxx" are a date identifier: YYYYMMDDHHmm):


  • org.eclipse.papyrus.umlrt.properties_1.1.0.xxxxxxxxxxxx.jar
  • org.eclipse.papyrus.umlrt.ui_1.1.0.xxxxxxxxxxxx.jar
  • org.eclipse.papyrus.umlrt.validation_1.1.0.xxxxxxxxxxxx.jar
  • org.eclipse.papyrus.umlrt.wizard_1.1.1.1.0.xxxxxxxxxxxx.jar

If this occurs, this situation is easily remedied by following these steps:


  1. Shut down Eclipse
  2. Start a terminal (shell)
  3. Go to the folder where you installed Eclipse, in step 1.1 If you followed the recommendation, that would be "cd ~/Apps/Papyrus-RT"
  4. Change directory to the plugins directory: "cd eclipse/plugins"
  5. Remove all the unneccessary plugins: "'rm -rf org.eclipse.papyrus.umlrt."*
  6. Start up Eclipse

The same result can be accomplished using a file browser, being careful on the files to be removed!


The duplicate menus should now be gone.
