The significant changes for the Pivot-based OCL are:

* Addition of persistence of the Map type as an Ecore EMap
+
 
+
This change fixes a bug whereby EMap declarations such as EAnnotation.details were treated as an OrderedSet(EStringToStringMapEntry) rather than as Map(String,String). Code using the erroneous interpretaion such as
+
 
+
eAnnotation.details->select(e | e.key = 'wanted' and e.value <> null)
+
 
+
must be recoded as

eAnnotation.details->select(k <- v | k = 'wanted' and v <> null)

Eclipse OCL New and Noteworthy items for the 2019-06 (6.8.0) release.

Release Overview

This minor release fixes a few bugs and provides enhanced extensibility for OCL-based applications such as QVT

Eclipse versions

The prevailing Eclipse OCL release candidate is auto-tested every week on Oxygen, Photon, 2018-09, 2018-12 and 2019-03 platforms using Jenkins on Linux.

2019-06 release should be installable on Mars and Neon platforms provided Xtext 2.9 or greater is also installed.

The 2019-06 sources are buildable on 2019-06 only.

Java versions

Java 8 on Windows was used to develop and test the milestones of this release.

Java 11 on Windows was briefly used to maintain and test the 2019-06 release candidates. It appears to work although Java code generation/compilation seems nearly three times slower - see Bug 565563.

Java 8 on Jenkins, Linux was used to build and test the release candidates.

The Classic Ecore/UML plugins have been tested on Mars, Neon, Oxygen and Photon and on a Java 5 Virtual Machine. Standalone execution requires only the org.eclipse.osgi plugin from Eclipse Kepler or a spoof of org.eclipse.osgi.util.NLS and org.eclipse.osgi.framework.

The Pivot plugins require at least a Java 8 Virtual Machine and at least Xtext 2.9.1. Testing on Oxygen has a couple of test failures. Testing on Mars and Neon has a few editor/console startup failures.

Milestone 1

Pivot

  • 471114 Genmodel of embedded ints in interfaces no longer fails
  • 471114 Genmodel of embedded int name collisions avoided
  • 471114 Genmodel of embedded int for Enumeration Literals warnings avoided

Milestone 2

Pivot

  • 546767 Text serialization now avoids $$ prefixes for synthetic types
  • 546767 Text serialization of collection type expressions now includes parameterization
  • 546767 Parsing of nested collections no longer confuses the multiple collection bounds.

Milestone 3

Pivot

  • 547704 Opposite role name annotations are no longer discarded by OCLinEcore editor
  • 547704 OCLinEcore editor has a new opposite role name annotation syntax

RC1

Pivot

  • 547723 OCLstdlib editor has an new opposite role name annotation syntax
  • 547835 Tracing of StandaloneProjectMap registration enhanced
  • -unrelated- Java serialization of Pivot metamodels no longer omits defaultValueString

RC2
