Create composite connector during transformation

[mholyszko]

Hi,

How can I create a composite connector during models transformation?
I've tried the following:

Code: [Select]

Composition
{
  %TRANSFORM_REFERENCE("FormClass", classGUID)%
  Source
  {
    %TRANSFORM_REFERENCE("FormClass", classGUID)%
  }
  Target
  {
    %TRANSFORM_REFERENCE("ControllerClass", classGUID)%
  }
}but it resulted in showing an error that the 'Composition' element is invalid. Then I prepared a simple diagram with an aggregation and a composition between two elements and exported it to XMI file. There I saw that composite aggregation had the tag:

Code: [Select]

<UML:TaggedValue tag="subtype" value="Strong"/> and tried to apply that in the transformation template:

Code: [Select]

Aggregation
{
  Tag
  {
    name = "subtype"
    value = "Strong"
  }
  (...)
}but still no luck. A standard aggregation was created between two classes.
I couldn't find any information about that in the manual or previous topics on this forum, so I created a new topic, kindly asking for help.

You can ignore the tagged value from the XMI.  That doesn't correspond to a tagged value in EA.

The actual way to create one can be found by transforming an existing composition connector.

Code: [Select]

Aggregation
{
  %TRANSFORM_REFERENCE("FormClass", classGUID)%
  Source
  {
    %TRANSFORM_REFERENCE("FormClass", classGUID)%
  }
  Target
  {
    %TRANSFORM_REFERENCE("ControllerClass", classGUID)%
    aggregation="2"
  }
}

That worked. Thank you very much for your help. I definitely wouldn't solve this problem by myself.
