Crate autosar-data-abstraction

This crate provides an abstraction layer for the AUTOSAR data model. It is built on top of the crate autosar-data and provides complex interactions with the model on top of the elementary operations of autosar-data.

Since the AUTOSAR data model is very complex and has many different types of elements, this crate does not aim to provide full coverage of all classes. Instead the focus is on the most common classes and their interactions.

Any other data can still be accessed through the basic operations of autosar-data, because the calls to autosar-data and autosar-data-abstraction can be mixed freely.

Example

let model = AutosarModelAbstraction::create("file.arxml", AutosarVersion::Autosar_00049);
let package_1 = model.get_or_create_package("/System")?;
let system = package_1.create_system("System", SystemCategory::SystemExtract)?;
let package_2 = model.get_or_create_package("/Clusters")?;

// create an Ethernet cluster and a physical channel for VLAN 33
let eth_cluster = system.create_ethernet_cluster("EthCluster", &package_2)?;
let vlan_info = EthernetVlanInfo {
    vlan_id: 33,
    vlan_name: "VLAN_33".to_string(),
};
let eth_channel = eth_cluster.create_physical_channel("EthChannel", Some(&vlan_info))?;
let vlan_info_2 = eth_channel.vlan_info().unwrap();

// create an ECU instance and connect it to the Ethernet channel
let package_3 = model.get_or_create_package("/Ecus")?;
let ecu_instance_a = system.create_ecu_instance("Ecu_A", &package_3)?;
let ethctrl = ecu_instance_a
    .create_ethernet_communication_controller(
        "EthernetController",
        Some("ab:cd:ef:01:02:03".to_string())
    )?;
let channels_iter = ethctrl.connected_channels();
ethctrl.connect_physical_channel("Ecu_A_connector", &eth_channel)?;
let channels_iter = ethctrl.connected_channels();

autosar-data-abstraction

This is an abstraction layer on top of the autosar-data model.

Rather than transforming the element based model into a new form, it only presents a view into the existing model, and provides methods to retrieve and modify the data.

As a result the use of autosar-data-abstraction can be freely mixed with direct manipulation of the model. Allowing the two to be mixed freely is a very important design goal: autosar-data-abstraction only represents a tiny portion of all possible elements in an Autosar file.
