Hi

If you really want to use an M2T for a complex metamodel then expect to write a hierarchy of rules for each type and perhaps a sequence of passes so that your code rather than toString() does the formatting.

But since Xbase already translates to Java as part of its normal usage, why not just re-use the facilities that come with Xbase. A day or two struggling to understand how to re-use what is there will be much quicker than a feww weeks writing a full transformation.

Regards
