Specifying alternate file names for UML-to-Java transformation output

When you run a transformation, the transformation assigns default file names to the files and folders that it generates. You can use the mapping feature to specify alternate names for files that the transformation generates without modifying the source model. For example, you can establish a file naming convention and use a mapping model to implement it.

Creating and editing UML-to-Java transformation mapping models
A mapping model can help you manage the files that a transformation generates. You can create a mapping model if you want to specify an alternate name for any of the files or folders that a transformation generates.
Enabling and selecting mapping models
Before you run a transformation, you can select a mapping model for the transformation to use to assign alternate names to generated files. You can specify that a particular transformation configuration use a specific mapping model.
Updating mapping models after source models change
If you modify the source model of a transformation configuration, you can update the corresponding mapping model to reflect the changes.
