Re: [gmf-dev] GMF Tooling Visual Editor

Hello everybody.

In order to simplify the creation process of the GMF models we created a graphical tool (Based on GMF) to allow us to create a complete GMF model in a few minutes.

I would like to share it with you and appreciate your feedback about it.




That's a very good initiative! It seems easier to understand than current tooling. However it probably introduces some limitations/constraints in customizations and people quickly want to customize.
I see you created your own EMF model (simplemap) for this. Are there some additional types you introduced to this model? You could directly create an editor that would rely on .gmfmap and .gmftool files (and if necessary an additional model specific to this editor); then it would remain easy for users to customize the "classical" gmf files.
What do you think about it?
