We have finished to revise our plug-in for Eclipse. It supports Eclipse 3.0 now. With the plug-in you will be able to edit an iQgen project file (*.iqp) and select model elements for generation. The status of generation will be logged to the iQgen console in Eclipse. You are also able to start generation by clicking the right mouse button and select in the popup menu under > . Only .iqp files enable the popup menu item for generation.
Double-click a file with the .iqp extension to open the iQgen project editor. The editor shows several pages to edit the project file.
On the Transformation page you can set the model file, the project root path, the output directory, the template directory, the main jsp and properties to be used
On the Model page you can select the model elements for which you want to start the generation
On the Source page you can see the source of the project file
Do not edit the source of the project file!
You can start generation by clicking the button in the toolbar or by opening the popup menu on a .iqp file and selecting .
The iQgen console is released as a view, and you can open it via > > > . The following figure shows a list of generated files and some other information of the generation status.
You can set the logging filter and open a detail view by double-clicking an element of the list. If the element is a generated file, the file will be opened in the corresponding editor (e.g. Java files). If an error occurred while generating, you can double-click the error entry in the iQgen console (red triangle) and the JSP editor is opened with the right JSP file at the line which produced the error.
A short list of features we are thinking about:
Support of WSAD
Wizard for project structure creation (subdirectories, main.jsp-dummy, ...)
Eclipse modeling Framework (EMF) connection
Usage of the Graphical Editing Framework (GEF) for model presentation
Editor, which allows editing only in protected areas
