Minutes

EIQ

• big refactor (Gaben)
  • introduce a better designed interface to loosen relationships between query evaluation and model comprehension
  • allow easier adaptation for MPS, mondix, RDF, …
    • status:
    • everything compiles, Rete uses new interfaces to talk to base index and ecore-specific metamodel info
    • MPS, mondix, …: not yet
    • localsearch: compiles, but doesn’t use anything new yet
  • transient build issues have been resolved successfully
• viewers
  • breakage most likely caused by merge issues, plugin.xml contents have been lost; fixed
  • a missing notification bug has been found, assigned to Csabi
  • there are still components that assume jface and eclipse platform presence; purely OCD-motivated for now; TODO Istvan Rath review https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=464942
  • TODO: Ábel - open ticket for viewers API change
• integration build started, milestone build will follow right after
• https://wiki.eclipse.org/EMFIncQuery/DeveloperDocumentation/FeatureSetAndTesting
  • overall feedback: cautious OK
• https://wiki.eclipse.org/EMFIncQuery/UserDocumentation/Surrogate_Queries done
  • blogpost: TODO Dini please go ahead
• surrogate queries
  • industrial feedback: not trivial to use outside of eclipse
    • see http://git.eclipse.org/c/incquery/org.eclipse.incquery.git/tree/plugins/org.eclipse.incquery.uml/src/org/eclipse/incquery/uml/IncQueryUMLStandaloneSetup.java
    • a better solution is needed for long term
    • TODO Uzi create a ticket for this feature, we will likely need this shortly after the 1.0.0 release
• pn simulator: is checked to be working with current -master
  • has some viewers-related issues
• M3 + local search
  • TODO Istvan Rath roadmap needs to be aligned and prioritized with Dani and Akos
