In short terms I want to work on an UML Model, translating every
DSL-Class to an UML Class with a stereotype of a self-defined
UML-profile (lightweight) and back. It should look for my GMF-DSL Editor
that he's working on his DSL-Metamodel (described in ecore).
Now I have some concerns using AMW:
1. Is AMW ready for productive use?
2. How can I handle possible data loss for UML Elements that are not
representable in MyDSL-MM? I still want to read/write UML Models (or
UML conform XMI files) leaving unrecongnized uml-elements unchanged.
3. Is it possible to run the corresponding transformations (EMF) event
based? Thereby I could have both models in sync resulting in the option
to open Eclipse UML2 editor and my own GMF-DSL-Editor at the same time
and work on the same model without versioning conflicts. (optional)
Right now I'm not sure if AMW is the right way. If you want to take a
closer look on my set-up / point-of-view, I already described my problem
in detail in "Connecting DSL-eCore w/ UML2" at
eclipse.tools.emf as well as
eclipse.modeling.gmt as well as
eclipse.modeling.mdt.uml2tools as well as
eclipse.modeling.mdt.uml2.
