Re: [ve-dev] API to Generate XMl

[Rich Kulp <richkulp@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Janak,

No we don't have that. It would have
to be a new editor part. One that gets its model from the EMF XMI file
instead of parsing from java code. We've always wanted to do that but we've
never had time to get around to doing it. The current JavaVisualEditorPart
is almost there but we would have to rip parts of it out because it no
longer would be a java code editor. We would have to rip out the codegen
with all of the decoders and such too.

Sorry,
Rich

Subject	[ve-dev] API to Generate XMl

Hi,

Right now VE generates Java. How can I make it generate XML?

I can see the component hierarchy and the properties in the XML view. I.e.
the EMF model is visible in the XMLView.

Is there an API available to the XML view? How can access it,  parse
it and
generate my own XML?

Or

Is there an API to walk the EMF model and generate XML? Lets say, I want
to
have buttons in VE like:

 "Generate XML" - that will walk the EMF model and generate XML
to a file.
 "Execute XML" - walk the EMF model, generate XML and execute
it

Thanks and regards,

Janak
