I've created neccessary models, model rules and transformed successfully in an ATL project. Could you introduce me some ways to call those transformations at runtime in C#. I'm using VS 2008 to develop my application. Thanks in advance

If you are able to launch a java program from C#, you may execute an
Eclipse application.
ATL runs in Eclipse/Java world, so you have to wrap your (ATL)
tranformation environnement in order to execute it from a C# program.

Hi Vincent MAHE,
Thanks for your reply but I still have some questions to ask.
Even if it's possible to run a Java application from C#, could you show me how to deploy an ATL project to ... a jar file for instance ? I'm new to ATL. So, I really need your help.

You may have a look on ATL 3 new API in order to know how to wrap an ATL
transformation: http://wiki.eclipse.org/ATL/Developer_Guide#Core

I never did a jar packaging of Eclipse application so you will have to
explore this question by yourself :-(

I still cannot use those namespaces to run ATL rules successfully. Could you please give me a snippet of code to run those namespaces ? I will appreciate you a lot ...
I'm getting tired of not being able to run ATL rules which are neccessary for my university thesis ... I've come through many articles instructing how to wrap ATL but none of them is compilable ... I wonder if there's any problem with Eclipse configuration ? Would you mind helping me ?

I try to follow your instructions. But the method "Platform.getBundle ()" always returns the exception java.lang.NullPointerException.

I do not know yet how to fix it. Can you help me?
