Below are the description of the most important files of this thesis.

• ./Metamodels/de.silvawb.java

  • Folder containing the Java metamodel definitions, developed in this thesis, in EMF ECore and the respective Eclipse plug-in with such definition.

• ./Metamodels/de.silvawb.java.edit

  • Folder containing the Eclipse plug-in for creating Java models conform to the Java metamodel of ./Metamodels/de.silvawb.java

• ./Metamodels/de.silvawb.java.editor

  • Folder containing the front-end of the Eclipse plug-in for creating Java models of ./Metamodels/de.silvawb.java.edit

• ./Metamodels/de.silvawb.uml -Folder containing the UML metamodel definitions in EMF ECore. The Eclipse plug-in used for this metamodel is however the built-in plug-in given by Eclipse.

• ./Metamodels/de.silvawb.java.edit_1.0.0.201602061423.jar

• ./Metamodels/de.silvawb.java.editor_1.0.0.201602061423.jar

• ./Metamodels/de.silvawb.java_0.1.0.201602061422.jar

  • The three jar files for the Eclipse plug-in regarding the Java metamodel developed in this thesis. These three files should be transfered to the plug-ins folder of your Eclipse installation (see II. SETUP)

• ./Transformations/de.silvawb.uml2java/model

  • Folder containing the relation definitions between the UMLClassDiagram metamodel and the Java metamodel using the MoTE Plug-in (file uml2java.mltgg) and the respective diagrams (files *.mltgg_diagram).

• ./Transformations/de.silvawb.uml2java.launch

  • Folder containing the scripts used to execute the transformation umlClassDiagram2java (in ./Transformations/de.silvawb.uml2java) (see III. EXECUTING A TRANSFORMATION).

• ./Transformations/de.silvawb.umlContract2java/model

  • Folder containing the relation definitions between the UMLContract metamodel and the Java metamodel using the MoTE Plug-in (file umlContract2java.mltgg) and the respective diagrams (files *.mltgg_diagram).

• ./Transformations/de.silvawb.umlContract2java.launch

  • Folder containing the scripts used to execute the transformation umlContract2java (in ./Transformations/de.silvawb.umlContract2java) (see III. EXECUTING A TRANSFORMATION).

• ./Transformations/de.silvawb.umlInteraction2java/model

  • Folder containing the relation definitions between the UMLSequenceDiagram metamodel and the Java metamodel using the MoTE Plug-in (file umlInteraction2java.mltgg) and the respective diagrams (files *.mltgg_diagram).

• ./Transformations/de.silvawb.umlInteraction2java.launch

  • Folder containing the scripts used to execute the transformation umlSequenceDiagram2java (in ./Transformations/de.silvawb.umlInteraction2java) (see III. EXECUTING A TRANSFORMATION).

Below are the steps necessary to setup the environment for using the metamodels and relations developed in this thesis

1. Download and install the Eclipse IDE Mars 2 Modeling Tool: http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-modeling-tools/mars2
2. Download and Install Ecore Tools: http://www.eclipse.org/ecoretools/download.html
3. Download and Install Mote Plug-in: https://www.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/giese/public/mdelab/mdelab-projects/mote-a-tgg-based-model-transformation-engine/
4. Copy the following files into the plug-ins directory of the eclipse instalation (folder "plugins" inside eclipse's directory):

• ./Metamodels/de.silvawb.java.edit_1.0.0.201602061423.jar
• ./Metamodels/de.silvawb.java.editor_1.0.0.201602061423.jar
• ./Metamodels/de.silvawb.java_0.1.0.201602061422.jar

Below are the steps to execute a forward transformation between two models, which relations has been defined in this thesis. The setup steps should be successfully completed in order to run the transformations.

1. Import the following projects into your eclipse's workspace:

• ./Transformations/de.silvawb.uml2java
• ./Transformations/de.silvawb.umlContract2java
• ./Transformations/de.silvawb.umlInteraction2java

2. Right-click over the respective relation's project (de.silvawb.uml2java or de.silvawb.umlContract2java or de.silvawb.umlContract2java)

• Then Run as > Eclipse Application

3. Import the following projects into your eclipse's workspace:

• ./Transformations/de.silvawb.uml2java.launch
• ./Transformations/de.silvawb.umlContract2java.launch
• ./Transformations/de.silvawb.umlInteraction2java.launch

4. Open the desired relation's launch project (de.silvawb.uml2java.launch or de.silvawb.umlContract2java.launch or de.silvawb.umlInteraction2java.launch)

• Then Right-click over the forward workflow script file (uml2java_forward.workflow or umlContract2java_forward.workflow or umlInteraction2java_forward.workflow)
• Then choose the option "Execute Workflow", this will read the file "Example01.uml" and transform its model into a new java model that will be written in the file "Example01.emfjava"

5. Open the file "Example01.emfjava" to verify the results of the forward transformation. The log of the transformation is written in the console of the IDE.
