[kepler-dev] Kepler ontology

[Kenneth Evans, Jr.]

Izabell,

 

I had to do a "jar rebuild" to get them to show up.  That includes a
full-clean which deletes .kepler.  Possibly deleting .kepler would be
enough.  (I would rename it instead, as a backup ;-)   I'm still trying to
figure it all out myself.

 

In Eclipse, you can right click build.xml and select Run as  "Ant build."
to run Ant and set the targets. The launcher will end up under the External
Tools toolbar icon (with the red toolbox).  Do "Open External Tools Dialog."
to modify it.

 

I'm able to get my own actors in the library by "Save Actor in Library"
available by right clicking them.  The corresponding .class files have to be
in the CLASSPATH somewhere.  I added a project with the actors in it to the
CLASSPATH tab in the Kepler launcher and also added another directory to
save actor class XML files into.  It all seems to be working.

 

My biggest annoyance now is having to change to the directory where my
workflows are saved every time I start Kepler, which has been a LOT.

 

        -Ken

Thanks a lot to everybody!

I updated the classpath file and all errors are gone!

 

I found another useful file, kepler-project.owl, and added my own class
there.

Now I still have to make the icons visible in the actor tree. Any
suggestions?

 

Thanks again!

Izabell

Hi,

I was able to add a new category under Components by modifying
kepler-component.owl under configs/ptolemy/configs/kepler/ontologies. 

It did not appear in Kepler until I did an ant rebuild (which does a
full-clean).

On the other hand the information is in .kepler (which gets deleted by
full-clean).  If you would restore your previous .kepler, I think you would 
find the change is no longer there.  Thus, presumably you could accomplish
the same by modifying .kepler, but I haven't figured out exactly how to make
the changes.  On my attempts to do that, Kepler rewrote the files.  I do see

changes in .kepler/.actorlibrary and .kepler/.libraryindex after doing the
rebuild.

There seems to be a bug report on this issue.

Hope this helps.

Hello All,
I would like to see my own actors in the actor tree,in a new category, for 
example Project / <project name>
I don't think that editing the owl file would be enough.
At this point, I'm adding them under "General Purpose" branch.
I created a special icon for my project, I can see it on the canvas but not 
in the tree. Why?

Thank you,
Izabell
