Hi,

This question is related to AM3 project (KM3 is now part of the AM3
project). I've added it to the "to" list of the reply and I hope AM3
team could help you ;-)

Concerning automatic generation of editors, you may take a look to GMF
and TMF projects.

Regards,
Freddy.

If you need to generate graphical editors compatible with your
metamodels, you may use GMF as mentionned by Freddy.

If you need textual editors, you may take a look at the TMF project
(TCS, which is part of TMF, is available from:
http://www.eclipse.org/gmt/tcs/).

Best regards,

Hugo

Thank your guys very much for reply. As I know GMF is based on Ecore model
and km3 can be tranform to ecore model. However the point is someone has
implemented Sudoku based on ecore model before, our supervisor want us to
implement it based on KM3. Is there any tool to generate graphical editor
based on KM3 ? or any other way to solve it? Hope I can get your
suggestions. Cause we are struggle a lot on this.
