DDL creation adding default columns

[siochain]

New to EA - from class diagram I have used model transformation to create DDL which creates columns matching attributes of class - ok.
but I also want to add extra columns to every table such as "created_by" etc..
I guess that I need to modify an existing template.
Is there an example of how to do this and where can I get more information on teh syntax of these templates?
thanks

Have a look at http://www.sparxsystems.com/EAUserGuide/index.html?mdastyletransforms.htm for the syntax you need to generate and http://www.sparxsystems.com/EAUserGuide/index.html?codetemplatesyntax.htm for the syntax of the templates themselves.

To give you a hint, you'll want to add something like the following to the class template.

Code: [Select]

column
{
 name="created_by"
 type="string"
}

Ok - I have done this by cut and pace of each sub element like classs of the DDL template.
Would have been easier if I could copy a template is that possible?
thanks
