SmartQVT is an open source implementation of the QVT-Operational language which is dedicated to express model-to-model transformations.

This tool compiles QVT transformations into Java programs to be able to run QVT transformations. The compiled Java programs are EMF-based applications.

It is provided as Eclipse plug-ins running on top of the EMF metamodeling framework and is licensed under EPL.

[edit] Features

SmartQVT contains 3 main features:

• a code editor : this component helps the user to write QVT code by highlighting key words.
• a parser : this component converts QVT code files into model representations of the QVT programs (abstract syntax).
• a compiler : this component converts model representations of the QVT program into executable Java programs.
