Re: [gmf-dev] IBM's DSM Toolkit demo
|
Hi Dan and others,
congratulations to your nice prototype of the DSM Toolkit.
By the way: what does "DSM" mean. I would propose to take a more simple
name like "Designer".
What I expect before going into the real implementation phase of the
Designer is to have
a discussion about the general requirements in the GMF group.
Perhaps the GMF community could also profit from some ideals of the
Tiger Designer.
I would also expect that the GMF Designer uses the Borland GMF code
generator,
so maybe the Designer could be joined work of the GMF community.
By the way: could we use Skype for the next presentation/discussion as
proposed in the kickoff meeting?
Regards,
Karsten

Hi Richard,
I'm looking forward to seeing an update on where the existing codebase
has evolved.
The work done by the students is definitely a prototype and requires a
lot more work but it exceeded all my expectations of what could be
done in < 10 weeks. They probably also exceeded our GMF M1 goals and
would definitely give the project a huge headstart...which is why I
pushed to have this presented to all of you. Over time we could
replace it with a generated editor but I see significant short-term
benefits to releasing this code to the community.
- We have nice/usable UI for M1
- There is (potentially long-term) value in the patterns (templates)
that the students developed to generate the right code that leverages
the runtime in the right way...this potentially helps the Borland
developers get up to speed on the runtime more quickly(??)
Look forward to discussing this with everyone.
Thanks,
Dan

[gmf-dev] IBM's DSM Toolkit demo
Hi All,
Thanks again to Fred and team for taking the time to show us the DSM
Toolkit. Clearly, some nice work by a small group of students in a
short period of time!
I'd like to get some feedback on this proposed contribution from the
group. Although it would quickly add some polish to the project, it
does so at the loss of having bootstrapped of our own editors (a
stated goal of the project). I'd like to see how our existing
codebase progresses toward this goal and have a follow-up call to
discuss this matter, our build/test process, the runtime refactoring,
and the EMFT contributions. Also, I'd like to cover some topics
raised during the Council meetings taking place in Boston this week
(IP issues, the release train, etc.)
Thanks again to the IBM team.
Best Regards,
Richard
