[emf-dev] EMF ECore file, read in and handle it in pure java?

["Ries, Christian" <Christian.Ries@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello, sorry when I am on the wrong mailing list but I have some questions about the combination of EMF with GEF or GMF…

 

I think it is hard to find good sources/tutorials for an easy start to code with these frameworks. The Javadoc doucumentation offers not all informations I need for my project, I think.

 

So my task is to implement a graphical editor for some workflows. I have a EMF eCore file and I don’t know, in other words, I don’t have good inspirations which would be the best way to create that editor. Which classes should I use to create a, for the first step simple graphical editor in pure java code, without the Eclipse GUI?

 

I mean, read in the ecore file, create editor functions with GEF and show the models defined in the ecore file. My target is to create a Eclipse RCP.

 

Have you some suggestions?

 

Thx a lot,

Christian
