Eclipse Papyrus 3.0 (Oxygen)

3.0 (Oxygen)

Description

Papyrus 3.0 makes changes on the following topics: 

  • Improve the user experience and usability (notably ergonomics, stability and performance). 
  • Homogenize and improve DSML-related mechanisms (including customizability and extensibility). 
  • Add new modeling and design facilities. 

In addition, some important architecture changes have been done for Papyrus 3.0:

  • Introduction of a 'Papyrus for Toolsmiths' feature to regroup the Papyrus DSML-related mechanisms. 
  • Better structuring of tests to be aligned with the architecture of Papyrus and to group them in consistent suites. 
  • Purge Papyrus main Git repository from incubation work. 
Architectural Issues

GMF Tooling has dropped from the simultaneous release. Papyrus decided to incorporate the GMF Tooling runtime plugin in its own code base. The original copyright has been kept but the namespace has changed to match the namespace prefix of the Papyrus project. 

Security Issues

No security issues known. 

Non-Code Aspects

User, toolsmiths and developer documentation to be completed on the last days of the release candidates.
