Hi there,
i have a project that i need to add the Acceleo nature to, so mtl files will automatically be compiled.

I tried using the "convert to acceleo project" wizard, but it just did nothing.
Could someone give me a little hint on how to achieve that ?

Im on Indigo btw.

Thanks for any help Smile

Natures associated with projects are specified in the .project file. You can try to add it manually :

<natures>
	<nature>org.eclipse.acceleo.ide.ui.acceleoNature</nature>
	[...]
</natures>

Thanks for the fast reply.
There is no .project file. It is a plugin-project and there is only build.properties, plugin.properties and plugin.xml.

You need to browse these files via the Navigator view, the default Package Explorer hides these files.

Oh my, thanks, really Smile

I added the nature and restarted eclipse. The "You need to add the Acceleo Nature to your Project" warning is gone now, but the emtl is still not generated ( i changed a few lines in the .mtl, started the plugin and called the method that calls the generation-> i got an io-exception "generate.emtl" not found).
Still, when i let the generate.mtl be compiled in my "normal acceleo-project" and copy it to the corresponding /bin location of my new project, everything works.

What is going wrong ^^?

hi,

you need also to add the acceleo builder to your pligin :
<buildCommand>
<name>org.eclipse.acceleo.ide.ui.acceleoBuilder</name>
<arguments>
</arguments>
</buildCommand>

BTW, you should also create a bugzilla because modifying manually the
..project file is bad.

You say manual editing is bad, but what would be the correct way to add the acceleo nature to the project, since the "convert to acceleo project" wizard does not seem to do anything?

Anyways, thanks for your help, it works now Smile

in Acceleo 3.1, it is "Configure > toggle acceleo nature", the "convert
to acceleo project" is used to convert acceleo2 project in acceleo3.

if it is not working, please open a bug on bugzilla :)
