Hi, every body,

I want to have a standalone desktop application that take the model files (.xmi files) as input and return the generated codes (in my case some .java files) as output .

I know how to make a java swing application for GUI part of my generator and currently i have the Acceleo project that gives the generated codes but i want to publish my code generator as a standalone desktop application and don't know how integrate the GUI part with the Acceleo project.

Thanks in advance,.

Hi

File->Export->Deployable XXX is often suitable for simple applications.

Maven/Tycho is the solution for more complex applications. Sorry I only use Maven/Tycho and have never used Acceleo with them. My inaccurate recollections of what I failed to do with Buckmnister before I migrated to Xtend will probably not help you.
