GMF with vaadin [message #1691438] Tue, 07 April 2015 05:29 Go to next message

Hello

I'm creating a web application using vaadin. I use eclipse kepler SR2 for J2EE in windows 64-bit and vaadin 7.

A part of my application is to implement a graphical model editor. I will use GMF for that editor. I see some tutorials about how to create such editor.

My question: how to integrate the editor in my application?

Please help me Smile

thanks

Hello there,

Vaadin utilises Java for the creation of web applications.
A GMF project comes in the form of eclipse PLUGINS.

You can not integrate the editor in your application, because it is meant to run in eclipse/desktop... Try to build the model editor with some javascript libraries instead.


Now on the other hand, if you create the GMF editor as an RCP, you can run it outside of eclipse, but still you can not integrate it in your web app. However, you can offer it for download to the users.

thank you Nikos Margaritis for your response

About vaadin, I use it as a plug-in in eclipse, so my web app is created in eclipse.

Ok, now I succeed to generate the gmf editor as an RCP, how can I use it?

Thank you again Smile

Your web app is created in eclipse but it is still a web app, it is meant to run in the browser, while GMF is meant to run in eclipse/locally...

If you generate it as RCP you can offer it for download and users will run it locally in their desktops.
