GeneSEZ Release Train 3.x¶

All GeneSEZ 3.x releases will base on Eclipse Modeling projects:

• EMF
• EMF UML
• MWE (Modeling Workflow Engine)
• M2T XPand

GeneSEZ Core¶

The basic goals are:

• useability: ease the use of GeneSEZ, assistance in creating new projects and model transformation workflows
• integration of JUnit and Xpand/Xtend check scripts (see GTM 01/23/2013)
• integration of other frameworks for generating code and performing model-to-model-transformation, like Xtend2 (see GTM 01/23/2013)

GeneSEZ metamodels¶

• implementation of an easier process to change metamodels including model-to-model transformations (see GTM 01/23/2013)
• solution to calculate and check the impact of metamodel and transformation changes performing by an impact analysis (see GTM 01/23/2013)

GeneSEZ Platforms¶

The main goal is to clean up scripts and templates to clear mapping concepts. Further goals include:

• reduce amount of functional code in code generation templates
• revise import/include concept to better integrate manual and generated imports/includes
• integrate state machine validations
• Use platform independent or more generalized stereotypes, like the UML entity stereotype, to minimize modeling overhead (see GTM 01/23/2013)

Documentation¶

Improve GeneSEZ documentation and the manual. This includes:

• clearly target documentation for user and developers (see GTM 01/23/2013)

• developer documentation should contains a section about meta-models and model-to-model changes
• documentation of core concepts and mappings (model transformations)

• add an how to guide, like "GeneSEZ in a month of lunches" to explain GeneSEZ in a shorten way (see GTM 01/23/2013)
• integration of Xpand/Xtend documentation from Daniel Sander (see GTM 01/23/2013)
• add changelogs to our releases (see GTM 01/23/2013)

Release 3.1¶

On our way to the 3.1 release we will target the following goals:

• Reintegration of TYPO3 platform
• Update TYPO3 platform to work with TYPO3 CMS version 6.0 or later

Release Notes 3.1.0¶

• UML adapter
  • transform meta data (stereotypes and tagged values) of external types (see #221)
  • allow interface realizatios for data types (by uml realization dependency) (see #230)
• Magic Draw Integration
  • GeneSEZ transformations can be started directly from magic draw (based on ant, see #245)
