Write Transformations

This topic provides help in writing your own transformations. Subjects covered are:

Further hints and tips can be gleaned from a close study of the Transformation Templates provided with Enterprise Architect. Note also that writing transformations is very similar to writing code generation templates, so an understanding of the Code Template Framework can greatly assist in understanding transformations.

The Transformation Template editor provides the facilities of the Common Code Editor. For more information on the Common Code Editor, see the Code Editors topic.
