Hello,

ATL is principally a model-to-model transformation technology.
It is possible to write in text files using ATL queries.
However, if you really want to deal with extended code generation, I encourage you to use model-to-text technologies such as Eclipse Acceleo.

Hi

However, if the distance between your model and code is non-trivial, you
should use one or more M2Ms such as ATL to get a text-like model so that
the M2T is easy.
