FW: [gme-users] Request for method addition to CBuilderModel

[Sandeep Neema]

Peter, Zoltan, and other BON developers:

Please see Jeff's earlier post. For PCES work Jeff's team needs a way to
create model-instances thru the BON interface. Prior to the PCES PI
meeting due to the pressing demo needs I made a 'suitable modification'
to the BON to add this method (see below). I would appreciate if this
method (or something equivalent with a better implementation) finds a
place in an (hopefully early) BON release. Could you guys comment on
if/when this will be done (or if its already there in BON or BON2)

Also, any thoughts on how convenient BON2 is for using in a
domain-independent interpreter/plug-in?

Thanks,
Sandeep

Subject: [gme-users] Request for method addition to CBuilderModel


For PCES, we have been working at integrating our aspect model weaving
transformation engine into the GME
(http://www.gray-area.org/Research/C-SAW/). For one special use by
Sandeep, he needed to make an update to the builder.cpp file to provide
functionality that he needed. 

Could the following method be considered as an addition in a future
version of builder.cpp?

--------

CBuilderModel *CBuilderModel::CreateNewModel(CString partName,
CBuilderModel *type)

{

CBuilderModelList *objectlist;

VERIFY( modelLists.Lookup(partName, objectlist) );

CBstr rname(partName);

CComPtr<IMgaMetaRole> role;

COMVERIFY(
CComQIPtr<IMgaMetaModel>(GetMeta())->get_RoleByName((CBstrIn)rname,
&role) );

ASSERT(role);

CComPtr<IMgaFCO> i = NULL;

COMVERIFY( GetIModel()->DeriveChildObject(type->GetIModel(), role,
VARIANT_TRUE, &i) );

ASSERT( i != NULL );

 

CBuilderModel* o = CBuilderFactory::Create(CComQIPtr<IMgaModel>(i),
this);

o->Resolve();

objectlist->AddTail(o);

children.AddTail(o);

models.AddTail(o);

return o;

}


Thanks for any help

Jeff
