Hi,

I have been developing QVT-R transformations for some time now, and I (as well as my colleagues) found it to be a big problem, that larger transformations very fast tend to be very large and ugly.

So, what we are currently working on is a process to improve the comfort of developing QVT-R transformations. As a part of this, we want to provide higher order transformations, which should put together separately defined transformation-snippets.

This means, that we need to use QVT transformation-files as an input to our own transformation. So what i would like to know: Is there somewhere an already existing resource implementation (e.g. in one of the modeling projects or one has already implemented one and has it published) for qvt-r files, which would allow us to load theses files as emf-models?

Thanks for any answers in advance,
Chris

Hi Christian

I'm afraid that QVTr progress in the M2M/QVTd project is dreadfully
slow; hoping to pick up after Helios with a new cascaded transformation
approach; see http://wiki.eclipse.org/M2M/QVT_Declarative_Languages

The QVTd project is the source of the QVT 1.1 model files, so in
org.eclipse.qvt you'll find Ecore, EMOF and Rose variants. These are
probably what you're looking for at the transformation level. The
QVTd project currently provides editors and corresponding Ecore
models. You can access the Update Site via the build page
https://build.eclipse.org/hudson/job/cbi-m2m-qvtd-0.8-integr ation/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/
I haven't yet cracked promoting a build so that they're on the
Project Donwload Page.

Since you're obviously using QVTr successfully what tooling are you using?

Regards

Ed Willink
