| h2. AMALTHEA Model Definition |
| |
| |
| h3. Ecore |
| |
| The AMALTHEA model is specified with the Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF). Eclipse/Java developers can use the AMALTHEA Platform where the generated Java classes of the model are included. The underlying Xcore definition of the model is part of the model plugin. |
| |
| Both definitions (the original *Xcore file* and the derived *Ecore files*) can be found "here":../help-model/ecore-definitions.zip. |
| |
| h3. XML Schema Definition (XSD) |
| |
| For developers that are not using Java or Eclipse, the specification is also provided in the XML and XSD format. The *XML related files* can be found "here":../help-model/xml-definitions.zip. |
| |
| The AMALTHEA model refers to the Ecore model definition (http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore). |
| This definition (generated automatically during conversion) is also stored in the archive. |

| The Franca model has no longer a direct connection but still can be used to describe interfaces. |
| |
| Franca is only available as Ecore file. To generate an XSD schema open the AMALTHEA Tool Platform and do the following steps: |
| |
| Open the Plug-Ins View by selecting __Window -> Show View -> Other__ and select Plug-Ins View in the folder Plug-in Development: |
| |
| !../pictures/xsd/show_plugins_view.png! |
| |
| Select the plug-in __org.franca.core__ and import it as __Binary Project__: |
| |
| !../pictures/xsd/import_franca-core.png! |
| |
| Open the model folder in the imported project, do a right click on the "franca.genmodel" file and select "Export Model". |
| |
| !../pictures/xsd/export_model.png! |
| |
| Select the entry "XML Schema for XMI" in the first wizard page. |
| |
| !../pictures/xsd/export_wizard1.png! |
| |
| Navigate to the last wizard page, select "org.franca.core.franca" and click finish. |
| |
| !../pictures/xsd/export_wizard2.png! |
| |
| Now there the file "francaXMI.xsd" in the model folder. |
