The Eclipse Modeling Framework Technology (EMFT) project exists to incubate new technologies that extend or complement EMF. For IP log information see the IP Log.
The Ecore Tools component provides a complete environment to create, edit and maintain Ecore models. This component eases handling of Ecore models with a Graphical Ecore Editor and bridges to other existing Ecore tools (Validation, Search, Compare, Emfatic, generators...). The Graphical Ecore Editor implements multi-diagram support, a custom tabbed properties view, validation feedbacks, refactoring capabilities... The long-term goal is to provide the same level of services as does JDT for Java.
More information is available on the wiki page for Ecore Tools.
This component comes from an initial contribution based on the Ecore graphical editor developed by Anyware Technologies as part of the Topcased
project. The initial committers are:
David Sciamma (lead),
Gilles Cannenterre and
Jacques Lescot.
EMF Compare brings model comparison to the EMF framework, this tool provides generic support for any kind of metamodel in order to compare and merge models. The objectives of this component are to provide a stable and efficient generic implementation of model comparison and to provide an extensible framework for specific needs.
CDO is both a technology for distributed shared EMF models and a fast server-based O/R mapping solution.
The Modeling Workflow Engine (MWE) is an extensible framework for the integration and orchestration of model processing workflows.
Net4j is an extensible client-server system based on the Eclipse Runtime and the Spring Framework.
EMF Search will provide the fundamental infrastructure and components for search queries on EMF based models. A particular focus will be made on integration with the Eclipse Core Search API for end user tight integration.
Teneo is a database persistency solution for EMF using Hibernate or JPOX/JDO 2.0. It supports automatic creation of EMF to Relational Mappings. EMF Objects can be stored and retrieved using advanced queries (HQL or JDOQL).
JCR Management (JCRM) will provide pluggable JCR implementations through the EMF API.
The goal of Mint is to improve out-of-the-box Java developer experience when writing EMF-based software. This is accomplished by extending Java Development Tools (JDT) with EMF-specific enhancements. The initial contribution consists of filters and decorators for highlighting EMF-generated code, Java search integration, as well as editor enhancements for navigating from EMF models to generated Java code.
Temporality is a feature providing automatic versioning of model instances. The basic idea is to provide a Temporal mix-in base class that can be pulled into existing models. By simply extending the Temporal mix-in base class existing modeled types are supplied with temporal features. i.e.: they will keep track of changes made to the value of their attributes and references.
EMF4Net tries to provide a EMF core runtime for the .Net platform and a C# code generation facility. EMF4Net should enable the generation of C# code from existing Ecore models and allow to use that code in a similar way the Java code generated by EMF can be used today.
