RE: [dsdp-tml-dev] Meeting minutes

["Yu-Fen Kuo" <ykuo@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

 

Based on our meeting from July 24^th, I am modifying my contribution of the deviceType so it can be easily reused.

I am introducing 2 additional attributes to the org.eclipse.tml.deviceTypes extension points:

·         isAbstract –  default to be false, if is set to true, it means that the deviceType is abstract and user will not be able to instantiate the specified deviceType. (The deviceType will not be displayed in the new Instance Wizard)

·         superClass – define the deviceType id of the super class of this device type, it will inherit all its wizard pages, services and properties unless you overwrite it.

 

See the example below for the sample extension definition:

   <extension

         point="org.eclipse.tml.deviceTypes">

      <deviceType

            description="Abstract device for QEMU"

            handler="org.eclipse.tml.device.qemu.handler.QEmuGenericDeviceHandler"

            id="org.eclipse.tml.device.qemu.abstract"

            isAbstract="true"

            label="Abstract QEMU device"

            name="Abstract QEMU device">

         <property

               name="icon"

               value="icons/full/obj16/qemu.gif">

         </property>

      </deviceType>

       <deviceType

            description="Generic device for QEMU"

            handler="org.eclipse.tml.device.qemu.handler.QEmuGenericDeviceHandler"

            id="org.eclipse.tml.device.qemu.generic"

            isAbstract="false"

            superClass="org.eclipse.tml.device.qemu.abstract"

            label="Generic QEMU device"

            name="Generic QEMU device">

      </deviceType>

   </extension>

 

Please let me know if you have any questions about it!

Yufen

Hi guys,

 

For ours records ...

 

=======================================

 

Meeting minutes (conference call):

 

Date: July 24th, 2008.

 

Attendees:

    Otávio Ferranti (Eldorado Research Institute)

    Daniel Franco (Eldorado Research Institute)

    Fábio Fantato (Eldorado Research Institute)

    Eric Cloninger (Motorola)

    Yu-Fen Kuo (Montavista)

 

Notes:

   

    Architecture:

    - There will not be a "abstract device definition" entity on the framework.

    - Any "Device Type" may be extend other "Device Type", and it will inherit its properties, wizards and services.

    - A "Device Instance" may be created by the end user from a "Device Type" using the "New instance wizard".

    - A "Device Type" is developed by the plug-in developer.

 

    Other:

    - Eric asked all members to provide requirements/needs so that the project would increase its audience.

 

========================================

 

Regards,

Otávio
