Hi, I am new to Acceleo. I am trying to run an acceleo generation from within Sirius. Here is what i have done.
1. I have created a simple metamodel with 3 metaclasses. Parrent 'FileSystem' and 2 composed classes 'Folder' and 'File'.
2. I have generated he edit and editor code and created a new runtime.
3. In new runtime i have created a simple modeling project and within it a new instance model of my ecore metamodel. It has file extension 'fsys' same a my metamodel name.
4. In runtime i created an acceleo project that takes this model and creates a simple text file. It runs successfully and file is being created.
5. In runtime i create a Sirius viewpoint project and make a double-click action on a node, that calls java service method.
6. In java service method i try to call (after adding acceleo project into dependencies and importing it) the java launcher class of Acceleo project with 2 arguments of my instance model location and target folder location..
The problem is that it doesn't generate the file now and gives error that packager URI is not found at the model location i have specified.
What am i doing wrong?

Hi

You'd better ask on the Sirius newsgroup if you are sure your problem is with Acceleo in Sirius. I've never tried this combination.

Since you're new to Acceleo, I suggest using Acceleo outside Sirius till you get the hang of it.
