org.eclipse.emf.query.ocl.conditions
Class OCLCondition


java.lang.Object
  extended by 

org.eclipse.emf.query.conditions.Condition
      extended by 

org.eclipse.emf.query.conditions.eobjects.EObjectCondition
          extended by 
org.eclipse.emf.query.ocl.conditions.OCLCondition
Direct Known Subclasses:
OCLConstraintCondition

Deprecated. Prefer the AbstractOCLCondition class, which supports customization of the OCL parsing environment as well as other metamodels than Ecore



@Deprecated
public abstract class OCLCondition
extends EObjectCondition

An abstract OCL condition class, used to apply OCL expressions to EObjects. It allows the integration of OCL expressions with other EObjectConditions.

This supports OCL expressions with or without an OCL classifier (EClass) context. Expressions that have no OCL classifier context are context-free. Such conditions are useful in situations where either the elements on which the expressions will be evaluated are of an unknown type or where the same expression might be applicable to multiple, unrelated context types.

Note that this class is not intended to be extended "directly" by clients. Clients may extend the OCLConstraintCondition class.

Constructor Detail

OCLCondition

protected OCLCondition(
String oclExpressionString,
                       
EClass contextEObjectType,
                       
IEStructuralFeatureValueGetter eStructuralFeatureValueGetter)
Deprecated. 
Initializes a query condition with an OCL expression string, an EClass representing the EObject type which the OCL expression uses as a context, and an IEStructuralFeatureValueGetter to use to get values of EStructuralFeatures referenced by the OCL expression. It defaults to using PruneHandler.NEVER to consult for pruning.

NOTE: if contextEObjectType is null, then this becomes a context-free OCL condition.

Parameters:
oclExpressionString - The OCL expression to apply when evaluating this OCLCondition
contextEObjectType - The EClass representing the OCL context classifier. Use null to create a context-free OCLCondition.
eStructuralFeatureValueGetter - The strategy for accessing structural feature values. It serves as a layer of indirection to allow clients to intervene between this condition object and the way it extracts the EStructuralFeatures' values so as to allow for manipulation of such values before subjecting them to evaluation by the OCL interpreter.

OCLCondition

String oclExpressionString,
                       
EClass contextEObjectType,
                       
IEStructuralFeatureValueGetter eStructuralFeatureValueGetter,
                       
PruneHandler pruneHandler)
Deprecated. 
Initializes a query condition with an OCL expression string, an EClass representing the EObject type which the OCL expression uses as a context, an IEStructuralFeatureValueGetter to use to get values of EStructuralFeatures referenced by the OCL expression, and a PruneHandler to consult for pruning the content tree.

NOTE: if contextEObjectType is null, then this becomes a context-free OCL condition.

Parameters:
oclExpressionString - The OCL expression to apply when evaluating this OCLCondition
contextEObjectType - The EClass representing the OCL context classifier. Use null to create a context-free OCLCondition.
eStructuralFeatureValueGetter - The strategy for accessing structural feature values. It serves as a layer of indirection to allow clients to intervene between this condition object and the way it extracts the EStructuralFeatures' values so as to allow for manipulation of such values before subjecting them to evaluation by the OCL interpreter.
pruneHandler - The PruneHandler to consult when pruning

EClass contextEObjectType,
                       
IEStructuralFeatureValueGetter eStructuralFeatureValueGetter,
                       
PruneHandler pruneHandler)
Deprecated. 
Initializes a query condition with a compiled OCL query, an EClass representing the EObject type which the OCL expression uses as a context, an IEStructuralFeatureValueGetter to use to get values of EStructuralFeatures referenced by the OCL expression, and a PruneHandler to consult for pruning the content tree.

Parameters:
oclQuery - The OCL query to apply when evaluating this OCLCondition
contextEObjectType - The EClass representing the OCL context classifier. Must not be null.
eStructuralFeatureValueGetter - The strategy for accessing structural feature values.

pruneHandler - The PruneHandler to consult when pruning
Method Detail

getOclQuery

protected final 
Query getOclQuery()
Deprecated. 
Obtains the query compiled by the OCL interpreter, which represents the OCL expression.

Returns:
the compiled OCL expression. This can be null if the condition is context-free and has not been initialized by invocation of the isSatisfied(EObject) method
See Also:
isContextFree(), isSatisfied(EObject), getResultType(EObject)

isSatisfied

public boolean isSatisfied(
EObject eObject)
Deprecated. 
Checks to see if an eObject is of a type conformant to the context of this OCLCondition.

Specified by:
isSatisfied in class EObjectCondition
Parameters:
eObject - the EObject to check
Returns:
boolean true if the argument eObject satisfies this EObjectCondition
See Also:
getContextEObjectType(), isContextFree()

getResultType

public 
EClassifier getResultType(
EObject eObject)
Deprecated. 
Returns the type of the ocl expression. Note that the result can be null in the case of a context-free OCL condition.

In the case of a context-free OCL condition, a context eObject is required to guess the result type of the expression. It is expected that the condition would subsequently be evaluated on objects of the same type as the eObject.

Parameters:
eObject - required in the case of a context-free OCL condition, to specify a context object. Otherwise, it is ignored and a null value is acceptable
Returns:
The type of the OCL expression (that is, the type of objects returned). This may be an EClass from your EMF metamodel or it may be an EDataType representing a Java language type
See Also:
isContextFree(), evaluate(EObject)

isContextFree

protected final boolean isContextFree()
Deprecated. 
Queries whether this OCLCondition is context-free.

Returns:
true if this is a context-free OCL condition; false, otherwise
See Also:
getResultType(EObject), isSatisfied(EObject)

getEStructuralFeatureValueGetter

public final 
IEStructuralFeatureValueGetter getEStructuralFeatureValueGetter()
Deprecated. 
Retrieves the strategy used by this OCLCondition to access the values of EStructuralFeatures of model elements.

Returns:
the structural feature value accessor

setEStructuralFeatureValueGetter

public final void setEStructuralFeatureValueGetter(
IEStructuralFeatureValueGetter eStructuralFeatureValueGetter)
Deprecated. 
Assigns the strategy to be used by this OCLCondition to access the values of EStructuralFeatures of model elements.

Parameters:
eStructuralFeatureValueGetter - the structural feature value accessor to use

evaluate

public 
Object evaluate(
EObject eObject)
Deprecated. 
Evaluates the OCL condition. Uses context object, if there is any needed.

Parameters:
eObject - Context for evaluation; can be null if the OCL expression has no "self" object
Returns:
the result of evaluation: could be null, a single object (either an EObject or a Java object), or any kind of collection of such objects

getContextEObjectType

protected final 
EClass getContextEObjectType()
Deprecated. 
Return the context EClass. Could be null if this is a context-free OCL condition.

Returns:
the context OCL classifier
See Also:
isContextFree()
