How to use deployed QVTo Eclipse Plug-In

I'm currently working on a QVTo transformation which transforms from an EMF model to a UML model. QVTo transformation works fine as it is if I run transformation from Eclipse Run Configurations as an Operational QVT Interpreter.

But now, I need it to be run programmatically from a Java Project which will handle when it must be run.

I have seen that QVTo projects can be started as Eclipse Plug-In projects and they can be deployed as Eclipse Plug-Ins, but my question is, how can I run QVTo transformations exported as Eclipse Plug-Ins within Java? If it is not possible as a Java solution, how could I run these transformations?

Solution

  • See org.eclipse.m2m.qvt.oml.TransformationExecutor

    You can see my MWE2 wrapper for QVTo at
