[news.eclipse.tools.emf] Re: ecore editor that only shows a specific type of annotation

Eike,

Ecore Tools has such nice forms for editing extended meta data annotations. And make the EEF project could help produce such forms too...

I never heard of such a view but I think it's a nice idea. Why don't you develop it and contribute it to the Mint component in EMFT?

Cheers

I am using Teneo to store my model data in a RDBMS. Its a legacy database so the table and column names are quite a bit different than those used in the model. I have to add JPA/hibernate annotations to make the model persist correctly.

However, adding and editing the annotations specific to the teneo.jpa annotation is made more difficult without being able to see and edit all of them at one time versus using the properties view for each entity and continuously reselecting the entity.

Is there a view already created that shows all the entities and attributes on the left and a specific annotation on the right that allows me to edit and see all of the annotations at one time? I wanted to avoid direct XML editing because for ecore, it is quite prone to editing errors that become hard to correct.

With this view I could edit all of the jpa annotations at once and then all of the documentation annotations at once.
