[ATL] Transformatio problem with extended metadata in ecore [message #498553]

Hi,
I am new in m2m. I have an ecore model using extended metadata to customize the de-/serialization. This is my source model. The target model is an ecore without extended metadata.

Is a transformation possible?

SourceModel:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ecore:EPackage xmi:version="2.0"
xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:ecore="http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore" name="tst"
nsURI="platform:/resource/t/test.xsd" nsPrefix="">
<eAnnotations source="http:///org/eclipse/emf/ecore/util/ExtendedMetaData">
<details key="qualified" value="false"/>
</eAnnotations>
<eClassifiers xsi:type="ecore:EClass" name="Test">
<eAnnotations source="http:///org/eclipse/emf/ecore/util/ExtendedMetaData">
<details key="name" value="test"/>
<details key="kind" value="elementOnly"/>
</eAnnotations>
<eStructuralFeatures xsi:type="ecore:EAttribute" name="name" lowerBound="1" eType="ecore:EDataType http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2003/XMLType#//String">
<eAnnotations source="http:///org/eclipse/emf/ecore/util/ExtendedMetaData">
<details key="kind" value="element"/>
<details key="name" value="name"/>
<details key="namespace" value="##targetNamespace"/>
</eAnnotations>
</eStructuralFeatures>
</eClassifiers>
</ecore:EPackage>

TargetModel:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ecore:EPackage xmi:version="2.0"
xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:ecore="http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore" name="t2"
nsURI="http://t2" nsPrefix="">
<eClassifiers xsi:type="ecore:EClass" name="T2">
<eStructuralFeatures xsi:type="ecore:EAttribute" name="nameT2" eType="ecore:EDataType http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore#//EString"/>
</eClassifiers>
</ecore:EPackage>

ATL:
-- @path T2=/xmlatl/T2.ecore

module t2;
create OUT : T2 from IN : TST;

rule NAMES {
from T : TST!Test
to TT : T2!T2 (
nameT2 <- T.name
)
}

I only get the error:
Error loading platform:/resource/xmlatl/dummy.test: org.eclipse.emf.ecore.xmi.ClassNotFoundException: Class 'test' is not found or is abstract. (platform:/resource/xmlatl/dummy.test, 2, 123)

What am I doin wrong?

Hello,

i have the same problem, seems that atl can not handle extended metadata.

I created an ecore model from a xml schema. Most of the attributes are
named differently in the ecore model than in the xml schema. The correct
names in the xml files are done with extended metadata.

When i try to read or write these xml files with ATL, i also get the error:
Error loading platform:/(...):
org.eclipse.emf.ecore.xmi.ClassNotFoundException: Class '(...)' is not
found or is abstract. (platform:(...))

Can anyone tell me, if QVTO can handle extended metadata? I tried a
simple transformation with the files from above but got an error
message, too (org.eclipse.m2m.internal.qvt.oml.emf.util.EmfException:
Failed to save model to platform:/resource/KBL/kbl2kbl.schema)

I don't have much experience with QVTO, so i don't know if it is because
of the extended metadata, but i think so.

Hi Klaus,

thank you for your feedback. Do you have a seperate post regarding the QVTO problem that I can watch? If yes, can you give me the link?

I would be nice to stay in contact regarding this problem.
