Run exported transformation [message #1404101]

Hi,

In short: how to package qvto transformations in a plugin such that they can be executed from eclipse in a run configuration?

I've created a QVTo transformation using eclipse wizard: new Operational QVT transformation. That one works.

Now I exported the project holding the transformation using eclipse export as 'Deployable plugins and fragments'.

After restarting ecipse, I expected to be able to create a new run configuration executing the QVTo transformation as stored in my (exported) plugin. However trying to enter the transformation in the dialog, by using the 'browse' button, does not show the transformation. It shows an entry labeled "Platform" but that one does not contain anything.

Do I need to do something special to have eclipse recognize transformations that are stored in a plugin?

Greetings,
Wilbert.

Hi

Have you checked that everything is actually in the exported plugin.

I've not tried deplayable plugins, but certainl;y when building p[lugins
relevant files/folders must appear in build.properties.

Also worth exporting a canned launch config to see if that works.

Otherwise a Bugzilla with a repro.

Regards

You have to register the deployed transformation using an extension point (as also replied in the bug report).

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?eclipse version="3.0"?>
<plugin>
<extension
point="org.eclipse.m2m.qvt.oml.runtime.qvtTransformation">
<transformation
file="transforms/PlatformBug.qvto"
id="transforms.PlatformBug">
</transformation>
</extension>
</plugin>
