I've so far been using ETL to transform a model A to model B (through
Ant). In general, the transformation needs to be applied to several source
models of A, to progressively build up the target model (which
accommodates this). I guess this is a common scenario, but am not sure of
the right way to do it.. Any ideas? I assumed I'd be able to perform
<epsilon.loadModel name="A" ... to load the first instance of A, then
perform the translation, and then <epsilon.loadModel name="A" ... again,
to load the second instance of A, perform translation, etc. However, this
approach only loads the first instance of A. Any help/pointers would be
very handy.
Ta,

Edd

Hi Edd,

I suspected that a model.dispose between the two model.load would sort
thit out - but this doesn't seem to be the case. Could you please file a
bug against this? I'll start looking for a solution asap.

Cheers,
Dimitris

Hi Edd,

I've fixed this problem and committed changes to the SVN. Are you using
Epsilon from source (SVN) or through the update site?

Further to my previous email, to load a model with the same name, you'll
still need to first dispose the previous one e.g:

<epsilon.loadModel name="A" type="EMF">
....
</epsilon.loadModel>

<epsilon.disposeModel model="A"/>

<epsilon.loadModel name="A" type="EMF">
....
</epsilon.loadModel>

Wow, that was quite a speedy fix :), haven't had time yet to submit a bug
report. Would you like me to do this still, for your records?

By the way, I've been using Epsilon via the update site. Should I use it
via the SVN (and if so are there some instructions on how to use it like
that) -- sorry, in meeting at mo...

No worries. Since waiting for the next version release is probably not
an option, you could either switch to the SVN version (see
http://www.eclipse.org/gmt/epsilon/doc/EpsilonSVN.pdf) or patch your
existing installation. To patch your installation you'd need to replace
\plugins\org.eclipse.epsilon.workflow_xxx\lib\org.eclipse.ep silon.workflow.jar
with the newer version available under
http://dev.eclipse.org/svnroot/modeling/org.eclipse.gmt.epsi lon/trunk/plugins/org.eclipse.epsilon.workflow/lib/
..
