Hello All, I have been considering to start a generator project for some time and finally got down to it. I started by investigating what was already available around and came all the way from EMF to oaw and now to Fornax.
My main motive was to a) establish a model, implement checks and conversions, then a common communication framework with the server b) Create an authorization / authentication on top of model and server (Server side and client side) c) Create a model for UI generation especially targeted at Eclipse RCP framework. Now, I see that most of the stuff has been taken care of you guys. I too was planing to base my design / development environment on eclipse + maven + subversion. OAW came later as it looked the best code generation framework amongst what I have looked into so far and frankly GMF alone is a very good reference. What I am expecting from RCP code generation is A GUI that - Creates a flow of work with some visual tasks defined group and filtered based on user role - Moreover this tasks can be filtered based on perspectives (used as application modules) - Data entry is based on a common validation and editor framework - User is assisted during data manupulation with eclipse cheat sheets - Overall application developed is easily extensible with downstream plugin contributors as in eclipse osgi case. Now, I would like to ask couple of questions if I may - What is the status of the RCP generator and is there a time plan? - I followed the RCP tutorial all the way to the end. I managed to get the RCP working. But I was surprised to see that there was no code instructions to manipulate the way the UI and application was created. Just to check, where should I look to influence code generation? - I have a lot ideas and enthusiasm. Is there a room for one more developer in your project? Can I be part of the RCP sub project?
