Here is an example of how to collect all children from the com.nomagic.uml2.ext.magicdraw.classes.mdkernel.Element and avoid recursion using a simple for cycle:
List<Element> children = new ArrayList<Element>();
Element current = ...
children.add(current);
// if the current element has children, list will be increased.
for (int i = 0; i < children.size(); i++)
{
current = children.get(i);
// add all children into end of this list, so it emulates a recursion.
children.addAll(current.getOwnedElement());
}
It is highly recommended to use more advanced collecting methods from com.nomagic.magicdraw.uml.Finder utility:
