Hi,

i need to run a XSLT transformation on a subtree of an EMF model. The plan: Serialize the subtree and run the transformation with the result file/stream as source.

Are there any better ways to achieve that? If not: What's the best practive to serialize not the complete model rather just a subtree? It's running on EMF Core 2.18.

regards,
Nicholas

You could try the org.eclipse.emf.ecore.xmi.XMLResource.OPTION_ROOT_OBJECTS option. A different approach is to use EcoreUtil.copy and create a separate resource to serialize that.
