Hi all,


I am trying to make a transformation that takes as input two models Ma:MMa
and Mb:MMa conforms to the same metamodel. The result is one model. The
problem is that model Ma references elements from model Mb. Here is an
excerpt of this model:


<universe xsi:type="Individual" localName="Individual_1">
<type href="platform:/resource/Samples/ontology-OWL.ecore#//@universe.0 "/>
</universe>


I allow the inter-model reference in the configuration but it raises an
error when i'm trying to access referenced elements.
How to well configure this transformation ?


Regards.
Guillaume

Hello,

Could you please remember to use the [ATL] prefix?

The "Allow inter-model references" option is only for target models. For
source models, inter-model references should directly work, provided
that you load all inter-linked resources.

Could you give more information (e.g., error message, stack trace) please?

Hello,

Sorry for having forgotten the prefix, i promise to not forget the next
time.

For my problem, it seems that everything is back in order. I surely have
done a bad transformation configuration. I've made all the tests and i
don't understand what was the error and where it comes from.

Regards
Guillaume

Hi,

I have a very similar problem. I want to use the refining mode to
transform Ma:MMa to Ma:MMa. Moreover, Ma contains references to a
"library" Mb:MMa. In my case, Mb contains standard interaction protocols
that can be referenced by Ma. During the refinement of Ma to Ma, I want
to generate a basic behavior template that implements/realizes the
referenced interaction protocol from Mb. The generated Ma should still
reference the interaction protocol in Mb, but the generated behavior
should be part of Ma.

The problem is that Ma can reference any number of libraries. You wrote:

Does "provided that you load all inter-linked resources" mean I have to
explicitly declare all referenced models as inputs for the
transformation? This could be hard because Ma can reference any number
of libraries. Is there another way to realizes this? When I do not
explicitly declare Mb as input I always get an error message.

Regards,

Stefan
