Hi, does anyone know how to use ATL to transform a bunch of models into one target model.

Say, I have a folder called F which contains 1000 source models, and I want to transform them to one by one automatically. I have my atl module written and test it with some examples, but I don't know how to that? Do I have to invoke ATL in command line? Or is anywhere I can change the configuration file to do that?

You can launch ATL transformations programmatically. So it would be easy
to browse your folder, catch its contents and process each found model
to an output folder.

I looked the example on the website you mentioned. But what I want to do are the following three things.

1. my transformation uses EMF-VM
2. I want to launch ATL transformation in a command-line environment.
3. Also I want to collect 1000 models first and then do one transformation.

I know this should be doable, but are there any examples available I can look at?
