Hello guys
I am a newcomer to ATL and have a number of questions regarding XMI support. I am trying to launch the UmlActivityDiagram2MSProject use case, the one where the metamodel for the subset of the UML Activity Diagram is found in a XMI file called UMLDI-20030818.xmi. My questions are:
1. Do I have to transform this UMLDI-20030818.xmi file to a .ecore file? If so, how can I do this?
2. I presume that every model processed by an ATL transformation program must be built using an external-to-Eclipse tool and then exported to XMI. Does ATL fully support XMI so this exchange works seamlessly?
3. Is it possible to export a .ecore metamodel to XMI using Eclipse, ATL and EMF?
Thanks a lot in advance. I appreciate your help.
/TB

ATL delegates to EMF "model handling", so you can create model inside
Eclipse thanks to EMF (or any tool using EMF).
This wiki entry could give some helps to start:

All XMI files created thanks to EMF could be used by ATL.

An .ecore model is an XMI file that conforms to Ecore metamodel.
