[ATL] Transformation in xmi format? [message #88424]

Hi,
Is there any way of serializing an ATL transformation in xmi format
respecting the ATL .ecore metamodel?
If not, is there any way of, via any API, to access ATL
transformation in order to be able to parse it?

Thanks very much in advance,

Regards,

Luis Pedro

Hi Luis,

You can use TCS injection for this.
Here is a tutorial: http://wiki.eclipse.org/TCS/TCS_Toolkit_Tutorial
The ATL km3 and tcs are available on the atl CVS under dsls

Alfons

There is already an injector available for ATL, which can be accessed
using AM3 Ant scripts. The following example Eclipse project reads two
ATL transformations and creates one new ATL transformation:

http://ssel.vub.ac.be/viewvc/atl-superimposition-semantics/

The build.xml script in this project gives you a good idea of how to
load ATL modules as models. You can then save them to another file
and/or use them in a transformation.

The TCS stuff in the build.xml file is used to convert ATL-as-models
back to ATL text format.

Hi Dennis,
Thanks for the answer. Yes, this build.xml looks nice and easy to
follow. My problem is that I'm not able to make the am3.loadModel to
work. I've the Problem: failed to create task or type am3.loadModel
error from ANT. I tried to get the org.eclipse.gmt.am3.tools.ant package
in a jar format to add it to my eclipse installed pluggins but with no
success! Do you have any idea were can I get the pluggins needed to make
this working?

Thanks very much in advance for your time,

Regards,

Luis

Make sure, in launch configuration, that you choose "run in same JRE".

That's what I'm doing. But I think I need to go and download the
org.eclipse.gmt.am3.tools.ant package but I don't know where from.

Depends on the ATL version you installed, but you could try to compile the
latest from CVS. dev.eclipse.org. in /cvsroot/technology
