Hi,
My name is Attila Bak and i have decided to support the GenGMF project because i think having an easy-to-understand, configurable generation tool for GMF is really challenging and GenGMF tackles this problem in an elegant way with oAW transformations.
To myself: I have been commiting into the Fornax oAW projects and TextUML for some time now and am an oAW fan. I am relatively new to GMF but hope to get deeper understanding soon and contribute as much as possible to this project.
Cheers,
attila

I’ve got the permission from the publisher to put both German articles as PDF online.
The first part (issue 4.2009, p.48) of the article series is about Templates, Descriptors and how to create them using Wizards.
In the second part (issue 5.2009, p.84) the focus is on Compartments as well as Transformators to give the nodes and edges a specific outfit.

After publishing the articles Attila (thanks for reporting) found out that the demo supplement has not been distributed on the CD as part of the magazine. So here it comes for the first article:
The plug-in to go through the article and the completed version.

I just finished my studies and will soon start with my Ph.D. reseraches. During my diploma-thesis I developed an collaborative extension for GMF-editor to allow graphical shared-editing in GMF including conflict handling, authentification/authorisation, offline-mode etc. This thesis lead to the open source project Dawn
Although I digged deep into the code of GMF and did not work extensively with the diagram creation aspects of GMF I found it sometimes very uncomfortable to handle even a small number of figure descriptors. To improve this situation I decided to support the GenGMF project.

I would like to welcome Martin Flügge as new developer! Maybe he will introduce himself.

In the Eclipse Magazin (German) is an article (p.48) which introduces GenGMF and the new Wizards. It’s worth reading!

After a long time the new version 2.0 is ready and published now. There are a lot of new features but the most important one is: Wizards. They could be used to create new graphical editors based on an existent metamodel within a few minutes. If you have an prior 2.0 GenGMF model you could migrate it using the GenGMF Migrator which could be separately installed using the update site. Because I am using the COPE framework for the migration I have to stick to Eclipse 3.4.
Please give me some feedback via the comments feature.

I want to use COPE to migrate to a new GenGMF meta model version. But this will break the Eclipse Europa (3.3) compatiblity of GenGMF. Before doing so I want to know what Eclipse version do you use. So please answer the poll on the sitebar…
Thanks
Update: These are the poll results…
What's your Eclipse version?
- Eclipse 3.4 (100%, 13 Votes)
- prior Eclipse 3.3 (0%, 0 Votes)
