Automating Software Development with Your Own Model Transformations
objectiF creates many technical artifacts automatically, relieving you of a lot of design and implementation tasks. In this way, objectiF supports you in automating your software development, two-fold:
- With model transformations for standard Java and .NET technologies, you can use right away,
- With integrated technology for developing your own model transformations.
If the pre-prepared model transformations aren’t suitable for your target platform, or if the target technology changes in the middle of the project ...
... you can:
- Tailor the existing model transformations in objectiF;
- Develop new model transformations with objectiF, for objectiF.
Transformation development with objectiF means minimal set up effort and no additional investment
A model transformation is a normal, testable and extendable application in a standard programming language. This means you can specify new model transformations in objectiF with UML models. You then implement them as you would any other application, extensively automated, via a meta-model transformation. objectiF’s system template has this ready for you.
Selecting the objectiF system template for developing your own model transformations
Homogenous technology: model transformations are developed with UML and a meta-model transformation in objectiF (via the menu command Transform into model transformation) and are highly automated. You can integrate the new model transformations into the objectiF user-interface with the context menu command Transform into objectiF commands
