Hi, I think this is a very interesting case. You are right that you should create your own xtext project.
There are actually two meta models involved, one for the DSL (directly derived from the xtext grammar) and one used by the code generation. In between there is a transformation. This is described more in the Developer's Guide: http://www.fornax-platform.org/cp/display/fornax/7.+Developer%27s+Guide+(CSC)#7.Developer%27sGuide(CSC)-Transformations I think you can start with not changing the code generation meta model, and only provide your own transformation, between your xtext grammar meta model and the original code generation meta model. You will have your own variant of DslTransformation.ext To execute this I think you need your own workflow file, i.e. replacement for sculptorworkflow.oaw /Patrik Steffen Stundzig wrote: > > Hi all, > > at first: > > fornax and especially sculptor are a great piece of work to develop model > driven. > > my question: > > The sculptor dsl seems to be for technicians.
