[ATL] serialise xmi to specific format [message #1232728]

Hi all,

Been trying to figure this out for some time now. I have the following output from a ATL transformation:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<xmi:XMI xmi:version="20110701" xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/spec/XMI/20110701"
	xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:ecore="http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore"
	xmlns:rbacDSML="http:///schemas/rbacDSML/_tLnNML04EeKvy_h4x72Tkw/47"
	xmlns:uml="http://www.eclipse.org/uml2/4.0.0/UML"
	xsi:schemaLocation="http:///schemas/rbacDSML/_tLnNML04EeKvy_h4x72Tkw/47 ../models/RbacDSML.profile.uml#_jFOcNmQUEeOBqdRHllEqmw">

Whereby I have my own self made ecore model as a metamodel for the input, and I am outputting a UML model based on the: uri:http://www.eclipse.org/uml2/3.0.0/UML referenced metamodel. The UML also has an input of a UML profile (rbacDSML).

Somethings I need to do but unsure if this is possible:

* Is it possible to change the XML encoding to UTF-8?
* Is it possible to change the xmi:version to '2.0' and its corresponding xmlns
* Why does the output uml metamodel refer to 4.0.0 and not 3.0.0 (the one specified as the UML metamodel) and is it possible to force the reference to become 3.0.0.
* Is it possible to have the xsi:schemaLocation make reference to a pathmap://RBACDSML/RbacDSML.profile.uml instead of the relative file path?

Many thanks,
Chris

Hi,
You can alter the xsi:schemaLocation by having your profile in a plugin. Then a pathmap will be the URI. The XML encoding comes from your JVM and/or your Eclipse setting in preferences/workspace/file encoding.

I assume the xmi:version is based on whatever plugins you have installed and what version of XMI they serialise to. I normally see 2.0
