[amp-dev] SD integration

[Jonas Ruettimann <jonas.ruettimann@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Miles,

Implementing System Dynamics has reached
a point where we’re able to simulate a simple SD model with AMP. It’s
just calculating, no visualization yet.

We’ve extended AMP at three different
spots:
-  metaabm.ecore (reference to
SD model integrated)
-  org.eclipse.amp.escape.amf.ide.EscapeAMFProjectWizard
(SD builder added)
-  org.eclipse.amp.escape.ide.ProjectLoader
(classpath extended for SD)

Code has not yet reached a point where
it is ready to be committed, though. The question arises how to integrate
our SD into the existing AMP without any dependencies from AMP to SD. Why
wouldn’t we want any dependencies from AMP to SD? – At least while SD
is still in an experimental state, it should not affect AMP’s release
cycle.

Our approach: Make SD an extension on
top of AMP! Therefore we need AMP to have extension points to register
our SD components.
Would you support our efforts on that
matter? Should we implement the needed extension points in AMP?

Cheers, Jonas
