Hi Derek,
No API way yet. Anyway, even with this reflective access it's
not trivial to integrate QVT with another language, as for example
GMF Xpand did.
QVTO has still other issues to solve for pure transformation writers before
it can be extensible and open this way.
You have gotten to deep inside and too early ;)
Perhaps, what can be done is to open the AST model but I do not think its
helps too much.

Hi,
I just ran into an Ecore model for QVT Operational
(http://www.eclipse.org/QVT/1.0.0/Operational. Are instances of this created
when transformation/libraries are parsed. It looks like something I could
use. :)

Hi Derek,
Yes, the meta-model represents the AST, a result of QVTO modules
parsing/analysis.
At the moment, you can't make use of it as its not open as API, the
generated Java
package is 'internal'.
In case you want to experiment, there is a resource factory registered per
*.qvto file
extension. If loaded, you will receive Transformation/Library objects
in the resource contents.

Thanks,
Do you happen to know the fully qualified class name of the Resource
implementation? I currently invoke all resource loading through my own code.

... which is also why .qvto files can be opened in any reflective model editor, such as Sample Ecore Model editor, MoDisco ModelEditor etc. (Right-click, Open With, Other ...) The best way to explore the QVT model, IMO ...

Hi Derek,
There is no need to access the resource implementation class, EMF ensures
that the right
implementation is used with qvto file name extension.
