RE: [dtp-dev] Model base still active?

[Der Ping Chou <dpchou@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Jeff,

In the model driven development process
with in Eclipse DTP, if you have a proposal for changing Model Base:

• You can use either use UML tooling such as Rational Rose to edit the model to submit your changing proposal
• or you can use Eclipse ECore editor to do changes the model as your proposal.

The proposal will be reviewed, similar
to what we have on the model base WIKI site: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Model_Base#Proposal_for_improvements_to_the_Authorization_.26_Access_Control_package_of_SQLModel

If your goal is to develop a specialize
model to support what is beyond SQL Spec, again you can use UML or ECore
Model editor to go about doing it. Attached is a snapshot of how the ECore
Editor works.

For example; you can edit by double
clicking the sqlodel.ecore within your Eclipse Java IDE/Package Explorer:

Thanks Der-Ping.  I have
looked around on these sites but have trouble getting started.  DTP
seems to be working OK but I can’t find anything on getting started with
UML modeling.  Should I be using the Database Development perspective?
 Here’s all I can find in the help facility about Model Base:
 
Model Base
The Model Base project provides the foundation
for database development using the data tools platform (DTP).
The Model Base project uses best practices,
like model-driven development with UML, and the Eclipse Modeling Framework
(EMF). The Model Base project includes the following components.
·
        Database definition
model
·
        Edit model
·
        SQL model
·
        SQL Query
model
·
        SQL XML Query
model
The Model Base project provides the following
key benefits and features.
·
        Change management
support – Models can be version controlled through Eclipse team support.

·
        Editing support
– Visual model editing and other kinds of model editing are integrated
with the EMF and EMF model generation. 
·
        JavaDocs –
Models are published with documentation to support DTP users. 
·
        Extensibility
– Models are extensible and not contingent on any particular database
management system. 
·
        Standards-compliant
– Models comply with standards such as SQL and JDBC connectivity. 
·
        Samples –
Sample code and plug-ins demonstrate model use. 
 
Jeff

Jeff, 

Yes, the model base is still very 'alive' but stable. 

Please let me know if following WIKI related to model base project helps:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Model_Base

http://www.eclipse.org/datatools/  or http://www.eclipse.org/datatools/project_modelbase/modelbase_doc/uml/SQLModel/root.html

Since we still use the model itself as our documentation. Please let me
know if you have question in certain area of model base project.

Subject	[dtp-dev] Model base still active?

 

Hi, 
  
Can anyone help with info on the model base project?  Is it still
active?  There isn’t much in the dpt-model-dev archive.  I tried
to figure out how to use it in the latest DPT download but can’t find
any docs or hints.
