Hi guys...I use eclipse with topcased, I've created some uml models and one Acceleo Project which contains my transformation.
Now I wolud like to create an Ui Launcher Project., I' ve followed this simple tutorial step by step http://wiki.eclipse.org/Acceleo/Getting_Started, but when I finish and right click on my uml model, I don't have the "Acceleo Model to Text" field, so I'm unable to run the transformation...do you know which can be the problem?
I use eclipse 3.6.1 with topcased...thank you...

I attach a screenshot of the situation..it might helps..

Hi Marco,

After the creation of the "UI project", you need to either:
1- launch a new Eclipse runtime
2- install your plugin in eclipse

You can find an example of the creation of a new "UI project" and its launch in a new runtime here (video 6 starting at 2min). If you want to build your generator to install it in another project, you can learn about the deployment of the generator here (after that you just need to install your generator in another Eclipse).

Thank you...I've solved this problem...but now I have another issue...I've updated the mtl files, then I've repeated the steps to export and install them as a plugin, but when I re-launch the trasformation, eclipse always run the old mtl files...it seems doesn't take notice of the update...How can I solve this problem?
I've also tried to unistall the plugin, but nothing happens. It still remain in the memory..but I dont' know in what location...
So I try to create a new UI launcher, a new plugin (feature project + updatesite project + installation), but when I make a right click on the uml model and I go to "Acceleo Model To Text" tag,there is only the old generate transformation even..Why I can't select the new transformation?How can I launch it over the same uml model?
thank you so much...

Hi Marco,

>>> I've also tried to unistall the plugin, but nothing happens. It still remain in the memory..but I dont' know in what location...
You should look in the Help->About Eclipse Platform -> Installation Details -> Plugins to see if the old plugin is still there.

Are you installing your UI project in the same Eclipse ? Because with this:
>>>> So I try to create a new UI launcher, a new plugin (feature project + updatesite project + installation)

You seem to be doing the right think.
