You have to split the projects into two: One that defines the generator, the
other that uses it. Typically the latter has a small workflow that calls the
generator workflow as cartridge.
Besides that it is best practice to separate the cartridge from the application
of it, it is simply necessary when executing the oAW M2 plugin. If you use any
supporting Java classes they have to be compiled. This happens in the compile
phase. The generator is used in the generate-sources phase, which is before.
See the maven build lifecycle reference.
When spliiting this up this is no problem. The generator cartridge is build
before using it, so also the java classes get compiled before.
You will find this pattern in any Fornax cartridge project.
Kind regards,

Subject: [Fornax-developer] [fornax-oaw-m2-plugin] executing workflow
Hi everybody,
I have following situation:
After making a code generator which now works excellently in when run in
eclipse, I would like to be able to use the maven plugin for easy deployment
and for being able to set up a small test framework (which then could call
the plugin to generate code from a model).
The plugin seems to execute, finds my workflow.oaw file and starts
expanding the different types in the model. But as soon as it tries to
execute a java file it tells me that it can't find the file... or more
precisely:
2009-08-25 10:59:44,451 ERROR [org.openarchitectureware.xpand2.Generator]
Error in Component generator of type
org.openarchitectureware.xpand2.Generator:
EvaluationException :
org.fornax.cartridges.uml2.javabasic.EL4JHelper.getFQNPackagePath(org.eclipse.uml2.uml.Type)
not found, problems were:
[AnalysationIssueType not found] - Couldn't find Java type
org.fornax.cartridges.uml2.javabasic.EL4JHelper :
org.fornax.cartridges.uml2.javabasic.EL4JHelper
My project structure is following:
[.pom.xml]
src
- main
- java
- [package structure of .java files]
- [all .java files needed]
- resources
- Model [containing the model file]
- oaw [where the workflow.oaw is located]
-xpand [here is the first template that gets run
by workflow.oaw
- [package structure of all .ext and .xpt files]
Would I first have to compile the .java files and/or put them somewhere
else? Or is there any way of configuring this to work in the pom file?
PS. yes, I took the javabasic catridge as starting point (and changed them
directly, which is not the recommended usage), but now have changed nearly
everything and have just kept the package structure for convenience).
Thanks for any helpful pointers
Daniel Thomas
