Problem with tags including ":" [message #1824119]

Hello and thanks for taking a look at my problem!

I am currently working on an ATL transformation. The target model has the requirement to only allow for certain xml-tags. Just like in:

<uml:Model xmi:version="2.1" xmlns:xmi="anything" xmlns:uml="anything" xmi:id="anything" name="backwardstransform">
</uml:Model>

I did some research and managed to find the solution for both xmi:id and xmi:type. However I still cant handle uml:Model.

Is there any way that ATL, outputs them as a tag?

Sincerely, Andreas

EMF normally takes care of the XML/XMI syntax, not ATL. ATL just writes out a graph of (E-)objects, and then asks EMF to save them to file. The example you gave is a standard UML model, so you can probably just use the Eclipse UML plug-in, which takes care of the correct XMI syntax. You can tweak how EMF loads and saves files using custom ResourceFactory classes, and tweaking their options. EMF customization usually means writing your own java code or Eclipse plug-in. Here's a nice write-up of what you can do with EMF model loading and saving: https://www.vogella.com/tutorials/EclipseEMFPersistence/article.html

Cheers,
Dennis
