[ATL] Wrapping sourcemodelelements [message #77942]

Hi...

I try to wrap elements of a sourcemetamodel into elements of the
targetmetamodel, but the output-model is quite empty.

Can anybody help me?

Here is a minimized example:

VVVVVV source.ecore: VVVVVVV
<ecore:EPackage xmi:version="2.0"

</eClassifiers>
<eClassifiers xsi:type="ecore:EClass" name="ClassCollection">

Thank you for the hint. I made mistake in the target metamodel.
WrapperCollection#wrapper should be 0..*.
I fixed this and the transformation creates the WrapperCollection containing
two wrapper. But these wrappers don't refer to any class.

I don't get any message on the console and according to the debugger,
"wrapped <- c" evaluates to the same object for both created wrappers.

In your Target metamodel, the "wrapped" feature is a containment
(containment="true")... and the Class object (as any EObject) can't be
contained into both a ClassCollection and a Wrapper. That's why the
"wrapped" reference is empty.

Hi William,

I modeled it to be a containment, because the old container,
ClassCollection, doesn't exist in the targetmetamodel. So there would be no
container.

I changed "wrapped" to be no containment, but this results in
<target:WrapperCollection xmi:version="2.0"
xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI" xmlns:target="http://atltest/trg">
<wrapper wrapped="//@wrapper.0"/>
<wrapper wrapped="//@wrapper.1"/>
</target:WrapperCollection>

I think it tries to set "wrapped" to the wrapper-objects, because the
assignment uses the equivalent transformed element for the assignment. But
this is not metamodel-compliant - the type of "wrapped" is "Class" but not
"Wrapper".

With this transformation I get an error, that my target metamodel doesn't
contain the type "Class".
At this point the target metamodel contains an inter-model reference
(eType="ecore:EClass ../source/Source.ecore#//Class").
Is it possible with ATL to handle inter-model references in the target
metamodel?

The target model, I'm expecting is something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ASCII"?>
<target:WrapperCollection xmi:version="2.0"
xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:target="http://atltest/trg" xsi:schemaLocation="http://atltest/trg
target.ecore">
<wrapper>
<wrapped href="../source/SourceInstance.xmi#//@classes.0"/>
</wrapper>
<wrapper>
<wrapped href="../source/SourceInstance.xmi#//@classes.1"/>
</wrapper>
</target:WrapperCollection>

Hi William,

thank you very much. Setting "wrapped" to non-containment and using the
refSetValue in the imperative section works exactly as expected!

Bye,
Stefan
