| [mdt-papyrus.dev] [Papyrus] Centralize creation element service in Papyrus |
|
Hi all, We have currently several frameworks to
create elements in Papyrus tool. This leads to inconsistent domain elements creation.
For example, GMF creates element using the palette framework, giving them an
initial name. The model explorer uses the EMF generic framework to propose
element creation. These elements are not initialized, which leads to malformed
models (no name on model elements). I also needs some functionality in the
property view, for example creating a classifier in the nested classifiers property
of a Class. We would like to propose a service with
Cedric, which would centralize the domain element creation relying on services framework
proposed by the backbone. The following document summarizes the requirement for
such a service. http://dev.eclipse.org/svnroot/modeling/org.eclipse.mdt.papyrus/trunk/plugins/developer/org.eclipse.papyrus.doc/services/elementCreation/CreationElementServiceRequirement.doc.
Thus, domain elements should always be created in a consistent manner. Feel free to comment the document. I would
like to close discussion before tomorrow morning 10:00 AM, so we could start early
implementation of this service. Regards, Remi --------------------------------------- |
