Hello,
I am very new to the modeling project in general. I am trying to transform a diagram made using GMF to text by using XPAND. I've been able to do so but I am only able to ouptut the result to an external file. This is the code I use (I've found it on the net):
public void convertToText() {
EObject model = getDiagram().getElement();
// configure outlets
OutputImpl output = new OutputImpl();
Outlet outlet = new Outlet("myOutput.txt");
outlet.setOverwrite(true);
output.addOutlet(outlet);
// create execution context
Map globalVarsMap = new HashMap();
XpandExecutionContextImpl execCtx = new XpandExecutionContextImpl(
output, null, globalVarsMap, null, null);
EmfRegistryMetaModel metamodel = new EmfRegistryMetaModel() {
@Override
protected EPackage[] allPackages() {
return new EPackage[] { SodaPackage.eINSTANCE,
EcorePackage.eINSTANCE };
}
};
execCtx.registerMetaModel(metamodel);
// generate
XpandFacade facade = XpandFacade.create(execCtx);
String templatePath = "templates::Pattern2Text::Main";
try {
facade.evaluate(templatePath, model);
} catch (EvaluationException ee) {
ee.printStackTrace();
}
}
The code works fine and I have the correct text transformation in my file. But, instead of outputing the result to a file, I need to have it as a string that I can use in my program.
Of course, I can always open the file and read its content but it seems a bit overkill. Is there a way to get the result directly, without needing to go to a temporary file ?
Thanks
Cédric

Hi Cédric,
this question came up a few days ago in this newsgroup. Please have a
look at the thread "How to generate into a string instead of a file with
xpand?"
Regards,
Sebastian
