Hi all,
I have the following problem: I am considering an XML schema of XPDL and
a set of XML files conforming to that schema.
I need to manipulate those XML files with model driven tools like ATL,
AM3, etc..
So i was thinking to look for the XPDL metamodel in ecore (I already
found it) and to automatically transform the XML files into models
conforming to the XPDL.ecore metamodel.
I would like to automatically do this transformation, does anyone know a
solution for this problem?
Cheers,
Ivano

dear Ed,
thank you very much for the answer, but my problem is kind of different:
I already have a set of XML files conforming to the schema, and I would
like to automatically transform each of them into a model conforming to
the generated metamodel.
Is there some way to automatically do that?
Cheers and sorry for the multiple post.

Isn't that exactly what the tutorial is showing?

Hi Ed,
the tutorial you pointed to does not solve my problem for two main reasons:
1) id does not keep all elements of the original schema,
2) XML fragments like this does not seem to be handled by EMF:
<WorkflowProcess Name="DailyProcess" Id="DailyProcess">
<ProcessHeader/>
<FormalParameters>
<FormalParameter Index='1' Id='v1' Mode='IN' IsArray='FALSE'>
<Description></Description>
<DataType>
<BasicType Type='STRING'></BasicType>
</DataType>
</FormalParameter>
</WorkflowProcess>
....
Correct me if I am wrong. I would be happy in that case, that means I
have a solution for my problem ;)
Cheers,
Ivano

As long as the fragments are well formed according to the schema, then
it will be handled.

I'm not sure how you reached your conclusions...

Dear Ed,
I tried out the tutorial and everything worked pretty well.
I just got confused by the "type" suffixes appended at the end of
generated metaclasses.
Cheers,
