Hi Jorge,

I have never worked with "owl" files but from what I've seen it seems to be some sort of xml file. You can create a "owl" code generator with Acceleo. I'll suggest you to have a look the Acceleo examples to see how you can define an Acceleo generator (File -> New -> Example).

You can then define your templates with something like this:

[module myModule('http://www.eclipse.org/2002/Ecore')]

[template public myTemplate(anEClass : EClass)]
<owl:ObjectProperty rdf:ID="[anEClass.name/]">
 <rdfs:subPropertyOf rdf:resource="http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#SomeProperty"/>
  <rdfs:comment xml:lang="en"></rdfs:comment>
  <rdfs:label xml:lang="en">[anEClass.name/]</rdfs:label>
</owl:ObjectProperty>
[/template]

I don't know the "owl" specification but you have the general idea.

Stephane Begaudeau, Obeo
