Getting the tagged values of a stereotype

Hi,

in order to get the tagged values of a UML element you have to analyse its stereotype applications. The following code snippet shows how to do this:

// Get all stereotype applications of the UML element

var stereotypeApplications = umlElement.omfGetStereotypeApplications();

// Iterate over the stereotype applications of the UML element

for (var itStereotypeApplications = stereotypeApplications.iterator(); itStereotypeApplications.hasNext();) {

    var stereotypeApplication = itStereotypeApplications.next();

    

    if (!stereotypeApplication.omfIsValid()) {

        // skip this stereotype application if it is not valid

        continue;

    }

    

    // Get the applied stereotype

    var stereotype = stereotypeApplication.omfGetAppliedStereotype();

    

    // Get all attributes of the stereotype

    var stereotypeAttributes = stereotype.getAllAttributes();

    

    // Iterate over all stereotype attributes

    for (var itStereotypeAttributes = stereotypeAttributes.iterator(); itStereotypeAttributes.hasNext();) {

        var stereotypeAttribute = itStereotypeAttributes.next();

        

        // Get the corresponding tagged value

        var taggedValue = stereotypeApplication.omfGet(stereotypeAttribute, null);

    }

}

There is an example report "Create and assign profile" in the report category "UML sample scripts". Although it's more about creating profiles and stereotypes, applying them to UML elements and specifying tagged values, it should give some more information how to deal with stereotypes in a report script, e.g. how to access profiles, stereotypes and stereotype attributes by their name.

Thanks a lot it worked for me !!
