Reqirements changed

Input systems must now have the same structure

Module instances shall not be explicitly chosen for the new system

Less dependencies between operations

History tree different

Project model decided

More solutions available

The best solution was the merge

UML specification

Solution

SolutionUsing Merlin eclipse plugin

Generates code using EMF & GEF

Big job: adjusting genreated MCV architecture to fit our system

Half-automated build

XSD specification of the core system

Coding started

Complete use cases

Merlin Generator• free Eclipse plugin• connection between EMF and GEF (models

and graphics)• code generation• advanced model transformation tools• why to use it: increased productivity, saved

time

Merlin Generator• example

• screenshots taken from actual Eclipse plugin

ProblemsCode adjustment

Custom properties windows

History drawing

XSD representation of entire system is hard

Once generated code is hard to reshape for different model.

Thank you
