Hi all,
I have a simple Ecore Meta-Model which models a library that contains books (it's just a simple example). Both, library and books are characterized by a name.
I wrote a DSL that allows me to do something like this:
SelectedBook BookA
SelectedBook BookB
Where BookA and BookB are books defined in an instance of the ecore meta-model.
I followed this tutorial and I was able to implement the aforementioned DSL. Hence I can import books name for an Ecore model.
Now I need to write a model-to-text transformation that transform the DSL in java code. I'm using Epsilon EGL.
However when I try to access the books within the transformation, the content of their fields (e.g. the string name) is null.
Do you have any idea on how it is possible to fix the problem?
Please let me know if you need further information.
I asked the question in the Xtext forum: http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/f/22/
They helped me in having a solution for reading the ecore elements in a standalone program. But they don't know how to do the same with Epsilon.
Thanks,
Luca

Hi Dimitris,
I made the simple example, I tried to keep it as simple as possible.
You can download it form this link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/jhvo33118le17f2/Archive.zip
You will find the following projects
Library Metamodel and editor:
- org.library.model
- org.library.model.edit
- org.library.model.editor
- org.library.model.tests
Xtext DSL
Library Metamodel and editor:
- org.library.xtext.dsl
- org.library.xtext.dsl.sdk
- org.library.xtext.dsl.tests
- org.library.xtext.dsl.ui
Xtext support for importing elements defined in the ecore meta-model (see http://christiandietrich.wordpress.com/2011/07/17/xtext-2-0-and-uml/)
- org.library.xtext
- org.library.xtext.ui
Support for the Epsilon transformation: org.librart.xtext.m2t
Epsilon transformation: org.library.transform.service
More in details the transformation is defined in the file 'Epsilon/Library.egl'.
You can run it form the menu 'Library'. It works only if the opened file is a '*.librarydsl'.
For convenience here you can find a project including 2 dummy models (one conforms to ecore and the other to the DSL): https://www.dropbox.com/s/19watg3sfvv2yba/runtime-EclipseXtext.zip
As you can see when you run the transformation, the generated file shows that the proxy is not resolved (first line of each book) and for this reason I cannot access its fields (second line of each book).
This is the Epsilon version: Epsilon Core 1.1.0.201309101707
Let me know if you need further information.
Thanks in advance,
Luca
