hi Chad, I was able yesterday to have the OCL to Java translator running on the examples from the OCL book (www.klasse.nl), they all pass the tests, so that's good.
What's left to do: 1. implement OCLExpressions and OCLCollections (java classes) to handle all expressions operators and collection features from OCL 2. we need a way to extract the inv, post and pre declarations from an OCL fragment because we need them at different places when integrating them with AndroMDA 3. adjust the templates for local caching of values, calling validation routines at method entry and exit (pre/post) Working this way with OCL gave me an idea, do you think we could generate junit test cases from OCL ? I mean, if you know the pre/post-conditions (no invariants for operations) it should be straightforward to move to test cases. Especially since test cases simply check the contracts we could generate fully working tests with dummy data, don't you think ? The next step could be of course to have an OCL to English translator that simply reads the constraints and expresses them in a human readable way. (Unfortunately it will be tricky to i18n this, because the order and construction of phrases is different for each language). Anyway, I will take a look at this if I have some extra time. comments ? -- Wouter __________________________________________________________________ Introducing the New Netscape Internet Service.
