Is it possible to generate a set of files using EGL/EGX? [message #1843240]

Hi,

I am trying to generate several files through one egl/egx with each file include different reference numbers.
Would this be possible?
Or EGL/EGX only allow one file to be generated each time?

The case is that I have a EMF model which including certain number (say N) of requirements.
I first query emf model to find all the requirements meeting my critiera,
then I use each requirement ID to search the information from a XML document; at last I create the egl template using information from XML.
The process above is coded in one egl file.

But I find it is not right to using a for loop to cover both XML information fetching and EGL template.

Is there any available solution for this issue, please?
Many thanks.
Fang

Hi Fang,

EGX/EGL can certainly generate multiple files in each run. Please see [1] which demonstrates generating one HTML file for each <book> element in an XML-based model.

Best,
Dimitris
