Abstract

This work presents a model to code transformation where extended UML association specifications are transformed into C# code. In order to define this transformation the work uses a conceptual framework for specifying association relationships that extends the UML proposal. We define a set of transformation rules for generating the C# code. The generated code extends an implementation framework that defines a design structure to implement the association abstraction. The transformation takes as input models those which are specified using the conceptual framework. Transformations have been implemented in the Eclipse environment using the EMF and MOFScript tools.
