"I'll try to list all the MDE tools I know, I'll also try to reference them by their scope. Feel free to comment this list of MDE tools! M2M/M2T tools: actifsource (http://www.actifsource.com/) AndroMDA (http://www.andromda.org/) Eclipse ATL (http://www.eclipse.org/atl/) is a part of Eclipse Modeling project Eclipse QVTO (http://wiki.eclipse.org/M2M/QVTO) is a part of Eclipse Modeling project Itemis/Eclipse xpand/xtend (http://wiki.eclipse.org/Xpand) it was originaly a part of the no longer supported openArchitectureWare (http://oaw.itemis.com/ & http://www.openarchitectureware.org/) is now a part of Eclipse Modeling project Mia-Software Mia-Generation (http://www.mia-software.com/) is a part of Mia-Studio tool suite Mia-Software Mia-Transformation (http://www.mia-software.com/) is a part of Mia-Studio tool suite Obeo/Eclipse Acceleo (http://www.eclipse.org/acceleo/) is a M2T tool that has recently moved from the Obeo (http://www.obeo.fr/) company to Eclipse Modeling project"

"red-open is a sister project of redView. red-open is providing a Software Factory to transform models and generate code. red-open uses Eclipse Modeling (MWE, Xpand, Xtend to transform Domain Models (EMF, UML, XSD, Xtext) into other models like redView View Models. red-open also generates code and artifacts to generate RCP Prototyping apps, SWT Views, MockUp, Riena Navigation Assembly...

" Xtext has been released as a part of the Eclipse Galileo release train on June 24th, 2009. Xtext is a framework for building DLSs (domain specific languages). In fact, it can be seen as a DSL for defining DSLs. In this article, we will develop a small DSL for defining entities."

"Let's imagine we want to create an application for orders. People can sign in to the system, place orders for various items, check out and have them sent to their address. Very simple, but we can show a lot of things here. As we expect to be writing more than one application of this type and as we also would like to be able to express the structure of the application on a business level (one of the major drivers for DSLs and MDSD for that matter), we come up with the idea of using a DSL to describe what the application does. Defining the DSL is what we did last week. This week, we need to map the concepts of the DSL to some code and some APIs we're going to program against. So, we're going to create a set of code templates for a code generator that can then read our DSL models and create persistence code for us."
