Ant task wrapper #165

Open jgsuess opened 1 year ago

We are using Eclipse for DevOps and your plugin has impressive features for a lot of stereotypical transformations. Eclipse platform ant support allows access to all plugin functionality. This would allow using your excellent plugin in a build if it was wrapped up in an ant task. It would also allow automating your tool execution in a more coordinated manner using an ant builder, rather than firing on every change. This would allow using your plugin for larger models.

Would you consider developing an ant task wrapper? I am happy to assist with technical advice, as the biggest hurdle tends to be understanding the ant driver's classpath handling.

Sounds good. That could be helpful for many people using Ant oder maybe Gradle. Unfortunately, it seems that this repo's owner @hallvard has not the time to implement and ant task wrapper. Maybe you could give it a try yourself?
