Hi,

I'm Tom, co-founder of GenMyModel, a modeling platform in the cloud.

We've just released the first version of our Acceleo template editor, which runs in the web-browser. At this step, the editor provides live compilation, error checking, syntax coloring, auto-completion, generation preview and run.

The editor comes with many template examples generating from UML, ERD and EMF to Java, SQL, etc. They can all be customized.

My team and I would love to get your feedback about this first version. That would help us steer our roadmap for the next improvements.

Hi

What is your underlying technology?

- bespoke re-implementation ?
- wrapper on standard Acceleo ?

You might be interested in the increasing automation around Xtext for
Eclipse OCL, QVTr, QVTc which could enable an Acceleo grammar to extend
Eclipse OCL and exploit the upcoming OCL-defined CS to AS conversion and
name lookup rules.

Regards

Ed Willink

Hi Ed,

We made a wrapper for compilation & execution, and a re-implementation for browser-hosted code edition.

For the execution, we wrapped Acceleo with a few modifications to make compilation and execution thread safe (pure Java). Compilation and execution of the templates run on server-side and the output artefacts are sent back to the client.

For the editor, we re-implemented Acceleo using antlr4 binded with GWT. Type evaluation, type checking and smart-completion run entirely in the browser.
