example ATL Transformation don't work [message #666917]

Hi everyone!

I'm currently working on some ATL-Transformation and therefore wanted to execute some of the example projects provided in the Transformation zoo. I'm particularly interested in "KM3 to OWL" and "UML to OWL", since the target model of my transformation is OWL. "Table2TabularHTML" also seems interesting.

But I can't get them running. No matter what I do, I keep getting errors.

BUILD FAILED
/workspace/KM32OWL/build.xml:37: Problem: failed to create task or type am3.loadModel
Cause: The name is undefined.
Action: Check the spelling.
Action: Check that any custom tasks/types have been declared.
Action: Check that any <presetdef>/<macrodef> declarations have taken place.

I found out on the forum ( http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=tree&goto=6584 45&S=bfc1a9242a3571925ff47d0083bb4aeb#page_top), that one has to install some older version of am3 as described here: http://wiki.eclipse.org/AM3/How_Install_AM3_From_SVN
Doing so results in checkouts containing lots of errors.

I tried to follow this instruction http://wiki.eclipse.org/ATL/How_Install_ATL_From_CVS_(Classi cal_way), but it tells you to install mdr-standalone.zip from http://mdr.netbeans.org/download/ which is not available any more.

I also tried this eclipse bundle http://docatlanmod.emn.fr/Eclipse_Bundles/AMMA_Prototype/AMM APrototypeEclipse.zip, that was recommended here: http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=msg&th=170635& amp;start=0&S=c6436e2614c462b3776fe4e0f0c6aa22 - same error as above.

I tried different versions of Eclipse without success.

I really don't know, how I could get these projects working. Can anyone help me? Any ideas? Do you need further information on my setup, error logs?

Thanks a lot,
Uli

Hi Uli,

Have you run your Ant scripts with dedicated launch configurations?
You can find examples of pre-configurated builds in the material available from http://www.eclipse.org/MoDisco/useCases/PerformanceAnnotated UmlStateCharts/

Anyway, another option is to quickly modify the ANT script (it's quite straight forward) in order to make them work with the new ATL ANT Tasks: http://wiki.eclipse.org/ATL/User_Guide_-_The_ATL_Tools#ATL_a nt_tasks

I hope this help.

Best regards,

Hugo

P.S. You don't need to install any MDR driver

I got the same problem described here and the same solutions, replacing some "am3" by "atl" in build.xml.

But, in the sequence, I got another problem:

[atl.loadModel] Loading model OWL from file:/C:\UML2OWL\OWL\OWL.ecore
[atl.loadModel] org.eclipse.m2m.atl.core.ATLCoreException: Error loading file:/C:\UML2OWL\OWL\OWL.ecore: java.io.FileNotFoundException:

This file exists in another path. In build.xml, I have

<atl.loadModel modelHandler="EMF" name="OWL" metamodel="MOF" path="/UML2OWL/OWL/OWL.ecore"/>

The system understands this path beginning in c:\ not in my project folder.

How can I solve this problem?
