CWM 0.3 published

January 27th, 2009

We published the version 0.3 Beta Green of the Chronos Web Modeller.

You can test 0.3 under:

http://cwm.nikostotz.de/demo/gui/

The Chronos Web Modeler (CWM) aims to provide an collaborative environment to create and manage models. The resulting models can be exported as XMI and transformed on the fly in code and/or a documentation.

New features include:

Web 2.0 style Generator access.
UML 2 export
Complete help
Translation in 3 languages
Administration perspective
Autocomplete in rich text area (concept only)

And much more….

Under the cover we have done a complete refactoring so that the code of the front end is now more object oriented.

To test the exported file you need a local copy of the Chronos Metamodel.

You can download Chronos from Sourceforge:

https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=198381

in the next weeks we will publish a Beta with following additional functions:

Documents Generation from the model
Classes diagrams modelling
Support for activity diagrams
Object locking for preventing concurrent update
Revertable history on object level

Web modeller for wCMF in development

November 23rd, 2008

I’m developing an application that generates a Domain Specific Language IDE with web 2.0 interface.

We call it CWM (Chronos Web Modeller)

here a screen shot

Check it out here:
http://cwm.nikostotz.de/demo/gui/

This is a private server: feel free to test but don’t count on performance.

The CWM aims is to create a model that is further used to generate documents and code.

We test (and support) Firefox only. A stable release will support all the major browser. Right now we are in an advanced alpha stadium.

We are developing the CWM with simplicity in mind.
Especially for the gathering of Requirements and use cases a complete modeling tool like EA can be an over kill for the typical “normal” client. A web client, near zero installation feature, allows more users to works with the same model contemporaneously.

After then this can be exported back to EA.
Some Background
The Chronos metamodel is used as basis to describes an IT project.
In Chronos a Goal -is specified by–> Requirement —is realized by a—> Feature—is detailed by a-> Use Case –that instantiates a-> Domain object.

Because this structure is generated rather that hard coded, if you have a project specific need, all you must do it to change the UML model
see below:

changing this model you completely change the applications objects.

Front end and backend are completely separated and communicate with JSON. Additionally also a SOAP interface is generated: see http://cwm.nikostotz.de/demo/application/soap.php for the generated API specification.

We are using EXTJS (http://extjs.com) and Draw2d (http://draw2d.org/draw2d/) as frameworks for the Java Script client and wCMF (http://wcmf.sourceforge.net/) for the PHP backend.

SPARX EnterpriseArchitect is used to model the UML while the generator is openArchitectureWare (openArchitectureWare.org ).
The generated Model can be exported in XMI (rational rose compatible).

The CWM is released under the Eclipse Common Licence and his source is available on the Project on sourceForge:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/olympos/

Submit your bugs here:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=198381&atid=965248

as you can see some of them are already know.

if you have a feature request tell us!

wCMF 2.0 released

February 5th, 2007

The 2.0 release of wCMF is available for download.

wCMF default application

Main focus of the new release is the consolidation of the MDA approach of application development with wCMF. We enhanced the generator metamodel to make applications more customizable through modeling and improved the usability of the default application template. If you are new to wCMF start with the new HelloWord tutorial.

Main changes in this release are:

wCMF default application template:

concise layout with tabbed navigation and list displays that support sorting and paging
advanced search using query templates
improved resource browser
soap interface that supports crud operations on all entity types
support for different entity association types (composite, shared)
internal changes include listener support for PersistentObject classes and customizable validation

wCMFGenerator

integration of more uml concepts (composite, shared associations and navigability, multiple associations between entities)
more options for customization of the default application template (display names and types)
better integration of legacy databases through customizable table and column names and compound primary keys
better inheritance support
all wCMF internal classes are included in the default application template and may be enhanced by inheritance (e.g. custom user and role classes)
