Re: [incquery-dev] Repository freeze: project merge

[Zoltán Ujhelyi <zoltan.ujhelyi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

some status report: the merge is on track, but requires some more time to be complete. The temporary repository [1] contains a sneak peak of the upcoming changes based on merging the repositories org.eclipse.incquery.git and org.eclipse.viatra.git. The plug-ins and test projects are mostly in place and renamed, but they are not yet versioned correctly (everything has its original version number), and work on features and releng stuff has not yet started.

However, if you could have a look at the structure to see what to expect after the merge is complete. We did some originally unplanned changes in project names as well (all recorded in the spreadsheet with the renaming details [2]):

 * The plug-ins related to the VIATRA transformation API has been prefixed with ‘transformation’. This is in line with all the other components of VIATRA.
 * The abstract view model generation transformation was also moved into the ‘transformation’ category.

Furthermore, we have found that the EMF metamodel in the org.eclipse.incquery.xcore.model project is very strange: it refers to both the Xcore and the IncQuery PatternLanguage metamodel using relative paths that is very hard to handle correctly. We are thinking about how to support these projects alongside others, but our first priority is to have everything in a common repository and build correctly.

Cheers,
Zoli
