Hi Christophe,
That sounds and looks very interesting! I'm not an Xtext Xpert ( :P ), yet, to be fully able to judge your approach. But
I've heard the question for Xtext/CDO integration many times already. Funny, just the other day a friend from the UBS
told me about an approach that sounded similar to me. I've CC'ed Robert because he may be interested in adding a
cooment, too.
Am I right that you're remaining questions mostly address the Xtext team? I've renamed this thread and CC'ed Sven as well.
If you think the Xtext-related issues have been clarified sufficiently I'd be happy to review a reusable solution from a
CDO perspective ;-)
Cheers
