  4. ArchStudio 4An Introductory Tutorial Slides adapted from Hazel Asuncion

  5. Roadmap • What is ArchStudio 4 • Concepts • xADL 2.0 • Data Bindings • Myx Architectural Style • Toolset integrated with Eclipse • Eclipse plug-in • AIM Launcher • ArchEdit • Archipelago • ArchLight • Selector • Type Wrangler • Using ArchStudio • Hello World Demo

  6. What is ArchStudio 4? • Architecture-centric IDE • Open-source • Eclipse plug-in • Integrated tools for software architecture • Modeling • Visualization • Analysis • Implementation Ref: http://www.isr.uci.edu/projects/archstudio/

  7. Just Another IDE? • No, it complements existing IDEs like Eclipse • Minimize architectural drift “Architectural drift: is the introduction of principal design decisions into a system’s descriptive architecture that are not included in, encompassed by, or implied by the prescriptive architecture, but which do not violate any of the prescriptive architecture’s design decisions… If not properly addressed, architectural drift will eventually result in architectural erosion.” [Taylor et al, 2009] • Built on its own architecture style

  8. Concepts • xADL 2.0 • Data Bindings • Myx Architectural Style

  9. xADL 2.0 • Architectural Description Language in XML developed by ISR at UCI • This ADL is defined in a set of XML Schemas • Modeling language behind ArchStudio • Modular and highly extensible • Core models • Components (computation) • Connectors (communication) • Interfaces (the exposed entry and exit points for components and connectors) • Configurations (topology) Ref: http://www.isr.uci.edu/projects/archstudio/xadl2.htmlhttp://www.ics.uci.edu/~edashofy/papers/icse2002-presentation.ppt http://www.isr.uci.edu/projects/xarchuci/

  10. xADL 2.0 • Tools can access the architecture description in xADL 2.0 via a common interface, the component xArchADT. • Base: xArch Instances Core • Extensions • Architecture structures and types • Product Families – versions, options, variants • Implementation mappings – architecture types to implementations Ref: http://www.ics.uci.edu/~edashofy/papers/icse2002-presentation.ppt

  11. xADL 2.0: CM/Product Family Arch Ref: http://www.ics.uci.edu/~edashofy/papers/icse2002-presentation.ppt

  12. xADL 2.0: Implementation Mapping ArchStudio 4 currently supports mapping to Java files Ref: http://www.ics.uci.edu/~edashofy/papers/icse2002-presentation.ppt

  13. XML • eXtensible Markup Language • Means of representing structured data • Looks like HTML but the tags are user-defined • Schema • Describe data in the XML doc • The “rules” for the XML doc Ref: http://www.w3schools.com/xml/default.asp

  14. xADL 2.0 Core Model <archStructure id="archStructure90164" type="types:ArchStructure"> <description>main</description> <component id="componentffa805157" type="types:Component"> <description>Server</description> <interface id="interfaceffa80123" type="types:Interface"> <description>getResource</description> <direction>in</direction> </interface> </component> <component id="componentffa12852" type="types:Component"> <description>Client</description> <interface id="interfaceffa57518" type="types:Interface"> <description>getResource</description> <direction>out</direction> </interface> </component> <connector id="connectorffa12435" type="types:Connector"> <description>HTTP</description> <interface id="interfaceffa54685" type="types:Interface"> <description>getResource</description> <direction>in</direction> </interface> <interface id="interfaceffa54686" type="types:Interface"> <description>getResource</description> <direction>out</direction> </interface> </connector> </archStructure> Server HTTP Client

  15. xADL 2.0 Components Server <component id="componentffa805157" type="types:Component"> <description>Server</description> <interface id="interfaceffa80123" type="types:Interface"> <description>getResource</description> <direction>in</direction> </interface> </component> <component id="componentffa12852" type="types:Component"> <description>Client</description> <interface id="interfaceffa57518" type="types:Interface"> <description>getResource</description> <direction>out</direction> </interface> </component> HTTP Client

  18. Data Bindings • A set of Java classes that can be used to create and manipulate architecture descriptions • Generated by “Apigen” tool, based on XML schemas • Reduces the complexity of editing architecture descriptions by hiding the XML and providing constructs more familiar to architects • Parses from and serializes to XML • Data Binding API • Components • Connectors • Interfaces • Links • Configurations • etc. • XML API (DOM, SAX) • Elements • Attributes • Documents • Namespaces vs. Ref: http://www.ics.uci.edu/~edashofy/papers/icse2002-presentation.ppt

  19. Data Binding Library Ref: Dashofy, E., Asuncion, H., et al. ArchStudio 4: An Architecture-Based Meta-modeling Environment. ICSE 2007 Demo Paper.

  20. Myx Architecture Style • Purpose • Support building flexible, high performance tool-integrating environments • Serve as a foundation for building environments in Eclipse • Heritage • Borrows most of key properties from C2 style • System implementation currently supported in ArchStudio 4 Ref: http://www.isr.uci.edu/projects/archstudio/myx.html

  21. Myx Architectural Style • Rules • Components are the loci of computation • Connectors are the loci of communication • Components communicate only through well-defined provided and required interfaces • Components and connectors have two ‘faces’: ‘top’ and ‘bottom’ • Components interact through three distinct patterns • Synchronous bottom-to-top procedure call • Asynchronous top-to-bottom (notification) messaging • Asynchronous bottom-to-top (request) messaging • Components may only make assumptions about the services provided above them, and may make no assumptions about the services provided below them. • Applications have at least one main thread of control. Additional threads may be created by components as necessary. Asynchronous connectors also have their own threads. • Shared Memory Ref: http://www.isr.uci.edu/projects/archstudio/resources/myx-whitepaper.pdf

  22. Myx Architectural Style • Benefits • Easy to reuse - components are relatively independent of each other • Easy to reconfigure – communication only via explicit interfaces • Enables runtime modification – through dynamic proxies and event pumps

  23. Myx.fw Framework • Difficult to adhere to the constraints of a style using an existing programming language • Bridge the gap between Myx and Java: myx.fw • Component and Connectors implement IMyxBrick interface Ref: http://www.ics.uci.edu/~edashofy/classes/211/myx-assignment.ppt

  24. Implementing a myx.fw component • Components have main classes that implement IMyxBrick • They may have as many auxiliary classes as you want • The main class may just be a wrapper for services provided internally AbstractMyxSimpleBrick IMyxBrick implements extends LunarLanderComponents Ref: http://www.ics.uci.edu/~edashofy/classes/211/myx-assignment.ppt

  25. Implementing a myx.fw component • Components have three main jobs • Store data from the framework (IMyxBrickItems) • Implement lifecycle methods (init, begin, end, destroy) • Provide true objects for all provided interfaces Ref: http://www.ics.uci.edu/~edashofy/classes/211/myx-assignment.ppt

  26. Component Jobs • Store IMyxBrickItems from the framework • The framework needs to store some data about the component along with the component • Abstract base classes take care of this for you • Implement lifecycle methods • Called by the framework when the architecture is in particular states • init(): Brick is created • begin(): Brick is wired into the architecture and ready to start • end(): Brick is about to be unwired and shut down • destroy(): Brick is about to be dismissed Ref: http://www.ics.uci.edu/~edashofy/classes/211/myx-assignment.ppt

  27. Component Jobs • Provide true objects for each provided interface • Each provided/required interface has a name • The framework will occasionally ask a component “give me the object that corresponds to this provided interface” • Likewise, a component may request, from the framework, the true object corresponding to one of its required interfaces Ref: http://www.ics.uci.edu/~edashofy/classes/211/myx-assignment.ppt

  28. Toolset Integrated with Eclipse • Eclipse plug-in • ArchStudio Perspective • AIM Launcher – launch the system in development within ArchStudio • ArchEdit • Visualization • Tree-view – schema driven • Indicate implementation mappings • Archipelago • Visualization and modeling • Boxes and arrows • ArchLight - analysis • Selector – product Families • Type Wrangler – consistency checks between types and instances

  29. ArchStudio 4.0 • Built on its own tools and technologies • Architecture specified in xADL 2.0 • Upon invocation • Bootstrapper parses the ArchStudio xADL file using the Data Binding Library • Bootstrapper steps through xADL file and instantiates the various components

  30. xArchADT – Data Store Live integration between tools ArchStudio Tools Ref:
