I know you're all waiting for the Indigo release final bits ! These 0 and 1 are finding their way on the mirrors as I'm writing to make sure we'll get the smoothest release ever ;)So, you ends up waiting ... In the meantime, I'm going to show you a nice piece of technology which is not going to be a new feature is Indigo ... as it's been around a few years already ;)Maybe you had a look at Maven/Tycho, it definitely gained momentum this year, it's completely based on these pom.xml< files. I used them a few times already and even with the Minerva project (which helps a lot) I'm already in a love/hate relationship with those files. "When the wise man point at the model, the idiot looks at the XML "Hopefully Maven is providing an XSD here : http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd which you can use to initiate an EMF model :Starting from an XSD is never as cool as starting from Ecore, but at least the EMF project can provide you an automatic mapping. And here is the mapped Ecore :If...

Shortly after the 0.9 release, the Extended Editing Framework come in 1.0 version. This is the end of the incubation time for the project !Between these two releases, we mainly worked on the EMF generation with Acceleo. You will now be able to test it in the 1.0 version.If you have "EEF EMF Code generation" installed, on a right click on the genmodel, a new "EEF" menu is available. Two actions allow you to generate Edit and Editor code.This is a first experimental version. Do not hesitate to try it and to report us any problem on this new module.Lien d'origineAuteur d'origine: Goulwen...
