[emf-dev] Re: [gmf-dev] [modeling-dev] Metamodeling
Hi, Andreza
 
Before moving to GMF, such as graphic definition, mapping, you need your metamodel in EMF
which is short for Eclipse Modelling Framework.
you could find a lot useful information in
Especially the tutorials, they are very usefull.
 
You have several way to create your metamodel, from XML, Annotated Java, and Rose UML class diagram.
In EMF, a metamodel is normally called the Ecore model.
 
I usually create my metamodel from the ecore diagram, it's almost the same with UML class diagram.
If you have some knowledge of UML, it would be easy for you to "draw" your metamodel in that way.
 
There is a book recommanded in the website: the Eclipse modelling framework, 2nd edition, It will help too if you
are completely new to EMF.
 
All the best

Hi everybody,

I'm new in metamodeling. I would like to ask you help me with some tips in metamodeling.
How can I begin to create metamodels?
While you are metamodeling, do you note some common behavioral between metaclasses relationship?
Can you tell me some features that I have to know for metamodeling?
 
Thanks a lot.
