Hi!
Your first problem can be solved with your second approach. You should
have at least two projects - one for the generator and the other for the
using application project. The build for the generator project does not
execute the generator itself, it just compiles the helper classes and
packages them together with all oAW artefacts. The second project
contains the model and executes the oAW generator during
generate-sources. This project is dependend on the generator project, of
course, and therefore the generator's Java classes get build before the
workflow is invoked. Maven sometimes forces to build artificial project
structures to get around those life cycle dependencies. In this case it
is somewhat logical that the structure is so. If you look at the Fornax
projects they are all structured this way, with one addition: there is
also a parent project which defines common dependencies and the other
projects as modules.
Regarding the model that is not found: This will be, as often, a
classpath problem. Of course the "model" folder must be contained in
some classpath folder. Usually this will be src/main/resources. Also
here, have a look at the Fornax sources. Check out e.g. the JavaBasic
sources and compare this one to your scenario.
Hope this helps you,
~Karsten

Hi everybody,
I have a question....
I configured the maven plugin of oaw to run at generate-sources phase with
run-workflow goal....
Now I am having problems with the compilation of a Java Extension for the
oaw...
Maven first calls the workflow and then compiles the sources (which make
sense of course...) but when workflow calls the extension the classes are
not compiled and it crashes...
Is there a better phase then calling the workflow other then
generate-sources?
Secondly, I try to be clever and created another maven project and
transported plugin configuration to this project. I use the first as model
project (so everything compiled and packaged) then I call from the second
project as cartdridge the first project..
At the begining everything seems fine, it finds the workflow from first
project and start initializing it from but then it crashes by complaining
the model file is not there....
Needless to say the configuration at the first project correct because it
works standalone (when I compile first then I call run-workflow). I am using
uml models and also prefer that model stays in the first project but is this
not acceptable?
Maven (workflow) is able to find out the uml profile files but XmiReader is
not able to find out the model file..
Model file configured like....
<component id="xmiParser" class="oaw.emf.XmiReader">
<modelFile value="model/statemachine-model.uml2" />
......
</component>
Should I have to use another pattern for the value, I try to experiment
something like file:../model/statemachine-model.uml2 that didn't helped
also..
Thx for the answers
