working with imported models [message #1848169]

Hi all,
I am new to Acceleo and I have this question:
Can Acceleo work with imported models and elements in it?
For example:
I have the CORE model and the User class in CORE, CORE is imported (LOAD) in model X .
I need to get the User class name and User attributes (or other classes) using a template working on the X model (not on the CORE model).

Is it possible?

Thanks for the answer,

Ilya

Hi

Absolutely. Models that can't refer to others would be pretty useless.

Hi Ilya,

to extend Ed's answer.

You can
1. either use a query like self.eContents(uml::PackageImport) to query for PackageImport child elements of self
2. or drag'n'drop the imported package into the model and navigate to it as with a "normal" Package element.
