Re: [Andromda-user] Extending the uml14 metafacade

[François Eric]

Thanks for the answer Wouter.  I would like to adopt the strategy you're defining but for a metametafacade.  In other words, I'd like to create a metafacade as uml14.  I'm able to do what you're saying with the cartridge but my problem is that the logic I'm implementing is then not available to other cartridges.  I'd like to make myself a new metametafacade (in the likes of uml14) and would user that metafacade in my cartridges.  My cartridges would then extend these metafacades if they need to. Concretely: uml -> uml14 -> HigherMetafacade -> cartridge1                                                        -> cartridge2                                                        -> cartridge3 This way I could add certain methods that are needed by all three cartridges in a metafacade without modifying the uml14 metafacade (which I shouldn't do...right?).  Is it possible to define another level of metafacade...if so how could I do it?

Take a look at the UML model for one of the existing cartridges (MagicDraw community edition recommended) -- Wouter -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:andromda-user- [EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of François Eric Sent: Wednesday, June 30, 2004 5:43 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Andromda-user] Extending the uml14 metafacade Hi, I would like to build my own metafacade which could be used by many cartridges. The purpose is to be able to have my cartridges extend these metafacades instead of the uml14 metafacades. For example, lets say I want to add a method called getOneToOneAssociations to the ClassifierFacade but don't want to modify the uml14 metafacade code (since its not in the implementation). I don't want to implement this as a cartridge metafacade either because it will be used by many cartridges and I would like to avoid duplicating code. How can I do this? Can I extend the uml14 metafacade and if so how? Otherwise how do I proceed?
