Hi,

Merry Christmas,

I want to load and execute immediately an EVL script just after a wizard application. Is it possible? How can I do that?

Kind regards,
Alireza

Hi Alireza,

EWL cannot directly invoke EVL scripts as far as I know, but there a few other ways in which you could achieve that effect. One simple way would be advising your users to save after applying the wizard and then making sure that your EVL script is run after each save, for instance. See the "Recipes" section at the end of this article:

http://www.eclipse.org/epsilon/doc/articles/evl-gmf-integration/

Another way would be defining a custom EOL tool that invokes the EVL script and using it at the end of the wizard. Custom EOL tools are discussed here:

http://www.eclipse.org/epsilon/examples/index.php?example=org.eclipse.epsilon.examples.tools

You'd have to define the custom EOL tool in a new plugin that depends on org.eclipse.epsilon.evl.engine. Have a look at the EvlLaunchConfigurationDelegate class in Epsilon to see how to run EVL scripts programmatically Smile
