[ATL] problem when input and output models share a metamodel [message #101076]

I'm running a transformation with three input models and two
output models. One of the input models shares a metamodel
with one of the output models. In this case, the target elements
for the output model are created in the input model! Has
anyone else experienced anything this and have a solution?

Andy.

Hi,
The closest thing to this I can think of is where you refer to what will
be created in the target from the source using resolveTemp. See
http://wiki.eclipse.org/ATL/User_Guide#The_ATL_Module_data_t ype Anything
requiring the target to be using in the source might require you to chain
a few transformations together using the ANT tasks.
Cheers,
Ronan

Ronan,

Thanks for your response. In my case, I wanted the target
elements created in the target model; they were incorrectly
created in the source model.

Hmm have you tried using resolveTemp with some helpers? I think i'd need
more details about the specific problem to provide any more help.
Cheers,
Ronan
