Hi, I have been trying to find a way to create transformation between two UML profiles (models defined in these two profiles) that I have created in Eclipse Modeling Framework. I tried with ATL and QVT, but it seems that these two transformation languages are only able to execute transformations between models for which their metamodels are defined in ecore. That's OK and I understand that this is because ATL and QVT are implemented as metamodels in ecore. However, if I try to make transformations between UML profiles, both these transformations aren't working. Since UML and UML profiles are defined in ecore metamodel I thought that this could be possible.
So my question is: Can I use ATL, QVT or some other transformation language to make transformations between UML profiles (that is models defined in my own UML profiles in eclipse)?

Any help will be so gratefully appreciated!
