Themes

Event-driven rule execution engine

We are developing a high-level incremental rule engine on top of EMF-IncQuery that will support incremental model transformations. Additionally, all the event-driven mechanisms based on the IncQuery engine (Validation, Data binding, Query-based derived features) will be migrated to this new infrastructure.

Query Libraries

Support for Query Libraries will enable IncQuery users to package their query definitions into reusable query libraries that can be embedded into EMF-based applications in a modular way. For the 0.7.0 release, we plan an initial support only, that is modular reuse within a single EMF-IncQuery project.
  • Support query libraries [398799] (target milestone: 1.3.0RC)

IncQuery Viewers

IncQuery Viewers is a new add-on framework on top of IncQuery that will support the integration of IncQuery query results into Eclipse applications through the JFace Viewer Framework and the Zest Graph Visualization Toolkit.

Integration with Xcore

We plan to integrate EMF-IncQuery with Xcore (http://wiki.eclipse.org/Xcore) so that IncQuery's powerful query-based derived features (with notification support) can be integrated with Xcore domain definitions in a straightforward way.

Eclipse.org migration

EMF-IncQuery was previously developed outside the Eclipse Foundation. During this release we plan to migrate all code, issues, build system and documentation to the eclipse.org domain.
