All Implemented Interfaces:

org.eclipse.emf.ecore.xmi.XMLHelper

public class TaurusXMLHelper
extends org.eclipse.emf.ecore.xmi.impl.XMLHelperImpl

Custom XMLHelper which creates AWM specific HREFs for RToolInParameters in order to maintain parameter references if corresponding function packages are not available.

It also creates legacy tool parameters for LegacyToolDescriptors.

Method Detail

getHREF

public java.lang.String getHREF(org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EObject pObj)

Creates specific HREF strings for tool descriptor input parameters. They cannot be interpreted natively by EMF (only by TaurusResourceImpl) and have the following syntax:

#toolDescriptorID/@inputParm.index

The reason is that we want be able to maintain references to tool descriptor input parameters, even if their function package is not available. While EMF is natively able to maintain direct ID references to an object whose EClass is missing, this does not work for references to containments of this object (as an input parameter is a containment of its tool descriptor).
With this special HREF we are able to reliably identify an unresolved tool descriptor and its targeted parameter.

If the given EObject is an instance of RToolInParameterUnresolved, it means that the corresponding function package was already not available when the resource was loaded. But the instance contains all information we need to create the HREF as it has been serialized before.
