I have create a new "Eclipse 4 Application Project" with "Eclipse for RCP and RPA" (4.4.1). In the enviroment I have intalled

Ecore Diagram Editor 2.0.2
EMF SDK 2.10.1
EMF Forms SDK 1.4.0

Now I try to make a sample application for a new future project. I have seen on you some video about the advantage of RCP 4. The main advantage is the Workbench-Editor. I can modify the Application.e4xmi very easy.

I have create the domain model and generate the code. Now I want to bring my data to the UI. I found different tutorial, but not of them show a sample with the Workbench-Editor.

I go on the model.encore - right mouse click - select 'create a new "View Model Project"'. I 'design' my view very easy. But then I dont know what are the next steps.

I try to select the ClassUri of the ....viewmodel-Class. But they dont shown in then selction. I think I have forget someone important. I hope someone can give me a answer.

Thanks

Hi,

EMF Forms ships with several examples. One of them is based on e4 and
shows the integration into an e4 application.
Please have a look here:

Please let me know, if there are still open questions.

Best regards

Jonas

Today I have do some steps forward.

I found out that is it not enough to define the BuildPath. I must add some files in the Dependencie-Section of the Plugin.xml

Now I have following error if I start my application:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.emf.ecp.view.model 4 0 2014-12-16 09:10:22.124
!MESSAGE No renderer found for element null

Can someone help me to find out, what I can do?

Hi,

you need to add the required view model and render bundles, or even
better the EMF Forms Runtime Feature (containing all basic view model
elements) to your product or at least to your run configuration.

Best regards
