Acceleo 3.2 has been officially released today, you can grab it from the Eclipse Marketplace, the modeling discovery UI or with the Acceleo 3.2.x update site: http://download.eclipse.org/modeling/m2t/acceleo/updates/releases/3.2 In this version, you will be able to see several performance improvements in the tooling and the compilation along with a brand new view in the Acceleo perspective, the Interpreter.

Let's say you have a model to model transformation, and you want to provide the ability, for the end-user, to see and control what is going to be applied on the target model. How could you do that ? EMF compare might do the trick..Here is a trivial model transformation, renaming all Classes which are "abstract" by adding a prefix to their name :public class ModelTransformer { public void process(Resource res) { Iterator it = EcoreUtil.getAllProperContents(res, true); while (it.hasNext()) { EObject eobj = it.next(); if (eobj instanceof Class) { renameifAbstract((Class)eobj); } } } private void renameifAbstract(Class eobj) { if (eobj.isAbstract() && !eobj.getName().startsWith("Abstract")) { eobj.setName("Abstract" + eobj.getName()); } }}The orchestrator of this process has the following responsabilities : loading the original models, transforming those, and then opening the comparison preview, here is the code coming from an action :protected void transformModelsA...
