The Model Driven Software Network
Raise your level of abstraction
Traditionally, it has been difficult for development teams to combine the use of models and code - modeling tools and programming environments. The reason is partly because of the modeling languages used and partly because of the tools. With the Eclipse plug-in, domain-specific models, expressed as diagrams, matrices or tables in MetaEdit+, can be browsed and used directly from Eclipse.
The MetaEdit+ plug-in for Eclipse allows generators to import and integrate the generated code with the code written in Eclipse as frameworks or unique business logic code. The integration also enables debugging at the model level: while running the application code, models can be traced and annotated.
A 5min video demonstrating the plug-in working is available at: http://www.metacase.com/webcasts/IntegratingEclipseAndMetaEdit.html
The MetaEdit+ plug-in for Eclipse is available at Google code (http://code.google.com/p/metaedit-plugin-for-eclipse/). The MIT license allows companies to freely adapt it to their specific needs.
