Hey Guys,

I keep reading about a "Generic EMF Forms Editor". After about an hour
of digging through the internets, I know that it was blogged about by
Sven Efftinge and originally contained in openarchitectureware.

Is this editor still alive somewhere? Which Feature do I have to install
to use the generic EMF forms editor?

Cheers,
Stefan

Hi,
Do you mean a form-based editor to edit eobjects, which is built up
reflectivly?
I do not know about the editor which was contained in OAW, but the EMF
Client Platform provides such an editor: emfcp.org
Cheers
Jonas

Hi Jonas,

thanks for your answer. Yes, a form-based editor like the one in ECP is
what I'm looking for. But the ECP-Editor is sadly not applicable
directly to Workspace resources, is it?

Cheers,
Stefan

Hi Stefan,

the generic form editor is part of the emft.mwe project.
Feel free to install it from the modeling update site.

Regards,
Sebastian

To save the next poor soul looking for this from spending half a day:

The generic EMF forms editor is in CVS
:pserver:anonymous@dev.eclipse.org:/cvsroot/modeling
under
org.eclipse.m2t/org.eclipse.xpand/examples/org.eclipse.emf.g eneric.editor/

Thanks to all who helped, anyway :-)

Have a nice week-end.
Stefan

Hi,
EMF Client Platform provides an abstraction for ressources, called
context. Thereby different data sources can be adapted. Currently we
provide an adapter for EMFStore and with the next release also for plain
XMI Ressources. If you are interested in the XMI Adapter, I can point
you to the sources until it is released.
We are planning to adapt CDO next (once the IP Process is finished)
Cheers
Jonas

Hi Stefan,
another easy way to get the generic EMF forms editor is:
- install "Xpand SDK" from main Eclipse update site (category "Modeling")
- open Plugin Perspective
- look for "org.eclipse.emf.generic.editor"
- right-click, Import As, Source Project

The interesting thing is that this works for any other project.
