Acceleo standalone generation

I also need to generate outside eclipse and i didn't figured out how to do it. I've read this thread but I have another problem to overcome first : I'm unable to start the main !

I tried different ways : export the project as standalone, put the project in a regular or executable jar, and launch directly Generator.class. I would like some help with the last solution. Here's how I launch it :

java -cp "..\testGene\bin\;C:\Program Files\Eclipse\plugins" testGene.main.Generate testModel.uml outputDir

I can't copy the whole console (dev computers are not connected to internet), but it says :

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/Eclipse/acceleo/engine/service/AbstractAcceleoGenerator Could not find the main class: testGene.main.Generate.

The generator works well inside eclipse, and I manage to call a simple test class with the same command line. I tried to copy the whole acceleo plugins in my bin directory in case the space in "Program Files" is a problem.

I'm pretty sure this is a simple error I made, any ideas ?

Since the program does not seem to find the AbstractAcceleoGenerator I would say that you are lacking some dependencies of the generator. Have a look at this screenshot to see the jar used for an UML to Java generator.

Furthermore, I'm not sure that it's sufficient to use the plugins folder in your classpath. Shouldn't there be a list of the jar files you need?
