Model To Text (M2T)

The Model to Text (M2T) project focuses on the generation of textual artifacts from models. Its purpose is threefold:

  1. Provide implementations of industry standard and defacto Eclipse standard model-to-text engines
  2. Provide exemplary development tools for these languages
  3. Provide common infrastructure for this languages.

The next release of M2T is scheduled for the end of June 2008.

Validation (Incubation) PhaseJET

The JET component provides code generation framework & facilities that are used by EMF. JSP-like template files can be edited and transformed into any kind of source artifact including java, html, properties or xml files in a very simple way.

Validation (Incubation) PhaseMTL

MTL is an implementation of the Object Management Group (OMG) MOF Model to Text Language (MTL) standard.

This component is an entirely new development of the OMG MOF Model to Text (Mof2Text) language. The implementation will be compliant with the core feature compliance level of the Mof2Text language to start with, then with the advanced feature compliance.

Roadmap

MTL 1.0 planned for June 2009 including standalone engine and parser, first MTL syntax support, (core feature compliance level of the Mof2Text language) Eclipse IDE components MWE integration and documentation. In the meantime, component opening is planned for January 2008, and standalone engine will be available by June 2008.

Documentation

More information is available on the wiki page for MTL.

Validation (Incubation) PhaseXpand

Xpand is the code generation language from Open ArchitectureWare (oAW).

Validation (Incubation) PhaseM2T Core

M2T Core is an invocation framework allowing clients to invoke model-to-text solutions independently of the model-to-text language.

Validation (Incubation) PhaseM2T Shared

M2T Shared consists of infrastructure components shareable between different model-to-text languages.

Incubation

Some components are currently in their Validation (Incubation) Phase.
