I was just taking a look at the EEF creation review, congratulations
and I'm looking forward to employing it. I was wondering about plans
for the toolchain and how that might evolve toward the planned December
(i.e. not ported) release. I'm not super familiar with Accelo proper
but it looks similar to JET approach and there appears to be a
generation workflow model. I'm wondering if you have looked at XPand
for future iterations? This is something that I'd mentioned over on the
EMF newgroups WRT to EMF.Edit. A principal advantage from XPand for me
is that the template language itself is much more modular / extendible
and it fits into a toolchain that works very well for user-driven code
generation. This might not matter as much for this usage especially as
you have a lot of plans for meta-model driven generation and API
extensibility. Wondering the same thing about MWE, is there a
possiblity of having a hook into that?
I realize that this a bit of a can of worms as there are two very good
(and pretty complimantary) M2T approaches within Eclipse Modeling --
I'm just wondering if there has been any consideration of the issue and
wether folks have any more thoughts on it.
