Project
Eclipse Ecore Tools
Release

3.2.0

Description

This release will focus on improving the user experience, most notably by:

  • providing a better wizard to create new Ecore modeling project

  • providing new contextual actions for launching the code generation from the diagram editor
  • fixing a number of smaller usability issues
API Certification

The project leadership certifies that the APIs in this release are "Eclipse Quality".

Non-Code Aspects

EcoreTools is built using Tycho/CBI on the Sirius HIPP when the SCM polling sees a change from the last build. The results are automatically published in P2 repository available for consumption.

Gerrit is used for almost all contributions, with a corresponding validation job on the Sirius HIPP.

Tests have been added to check for the consistency of the diagram editor specification.

End of Life

Code in the org.eclipse.emf.ecoretools bundle and which depends directly or not on UI code will be moved during the 4.0 development stream, breaking the API compatibility.
