Before
you can run a transformation, you create a transformation configuration. When
you apply a transformation configuration, an instance of the transformation
is created and the transformation runs with the properties that the configuration
defines.
The
C++-to-UML transformation uses the comparing and merging functionality to
determine the differences between the target model and the temporary model
that the transformation generates. When you run the C++-to-UML transformation,
the merge editor displays the differences between the two models. In the merge
editor dialog box, you can select the changes that the transformation merges
into the target model.
To
run a transformation, depending on the view that you are working in, complete
one of the following steps: - In the navigation
view, right-click a transformation configuration
(.tc) file; then click Transform and click a transformation.
- In the Pattern Explorer view,
right-click a transformation; then click Run Transformation.
In the Select configuration dialog box, specify the
transformation configuration to run, and click OK.
Tip: You can also
run a transformation from the transformation configuration editor. On the Main page,
click Run.
