Hi everybody,
I looked at the "opened bugs" page and I found an entry on EMFVMs stacksize
limitation ( https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=245891 ) . In the
comments it is pointed out (if I have well understood) that 'println' (as
opposed to 'debug') can be called safely (from stack point of view).
Nevertheless I have performed more tests with my simple transformation :
when I put the content all my 'do' sections into comments, my transformation
works very well with both VM in interactive mode by using the configutation
dialog box.
My questions are therefore: why? Does "println" have actually no effect on
the stack size ? How can I keep a trace of applied rules and of some
information about the source/target element manipulated by the rules whitout
overflowing the EMF VM stack? Should I use the Regular VM at development
time (using println of logging) and then use the EMF VM (without println
when I need better performances) ?
but when I use my 'buil.xml' with my transformation without 'do' section,
the error is still the same when I try to use
<property name="atl.launcher" value="Regular VM (with debugger)"/>
When I don't use this property (= I use the EMF-VM) it works
My 2nd question of my previous post remains the same: what is wrong in my
'build.xml' file and/or my transformation or in my way to do when I try to
use the Regular VM?
Many thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Jean-Pierre,
Some ideas below.

This is related to your next question.

Println uses and is an expression. After an expression exactly one value is
on the stack, so the interpreter can keep track of this and pop it off if
not needed. The operations in the do block are an entirely different thing,
they may or may not leave a value on the stack (remember you can use
expressions as operations, in this case a value is left on the stack while a
for loop doesnt leave a value). The interpreter cannot thus not know what
unused values are on the stack and can only pop complete stack frames.
If you keep this in mind, you might be able to reduce your stacksize a bit.
If not I advise you to enlarge the maximum stack value in the EMFVM code and
export a new plugin. This worked pretty well for me, no resource problems or
anything.

I would advice against that, since there still exist differences between the
two. Switching between them cost me allot of pain some time ago.

Can't help you there.

Good luck.
