[news.eclipse.modeling.m2m] Re: [ATL] XML extraction with ATL 3.0

[rbarrett@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (Ronan )]

Hi guys,
I'm still working on this. I have looked at the Ecore/XSD mapping, so I 
tried to influence the naming of the root element using the 
ExtendedMetaData attribute name->xxx, where xxx is the desired name for 
the XML element. It would seem that ATL pays no attention to this 
approach, although a genertaed default Ecore based on such a metamodel 
editor does.

Is there any way to influence this root element naming in ATL, without 
building an XML extractor?

Cheers,
Ronan
