Hi,
I'd like to start a conversation about future improvements for CM.
My current wish list:
- Java Entities
- Class Level:
- Ability to add extra imports.
- Ability to add interfaces implemented.
- Ability to add JavaDoc.
- Ability to add annotations.
- Attribute Level:
- Ability to add JavaDoc.
- Ability to add annotations.
- Relationship Level:
- Ability to add JavaDoc.
- Ability to add annotations.
- Ability to drill-down through relationships.*
- DB Entities
- Table Level:
- Ability to add comments (for DBs that support comments).
- Column Level:
- Ability to add comments (for DBs that support comments).
- Relationship Level:
- Ability to add comments (for DBs that support comments).
- Ability to drill-down through relationships.*
* Llike EOModeler, in the left-hand navigation pane. You could keep
expanding the relationship tree to expose other entities/relationships.
We've also previously chatted a bit about if we even want to keep
maintaining the current form of CM. If we did want to overhaul the
implementation, what route should we go?
- JFX (Seems like Oracle's ugly stepchild and I question their commitment
to it.)
- SWT
- Eclipse Plugin (The WOLips route.)
- Electron (Used by Atom and Visual Studio Code, among others.)
Your thoughts greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
mrg
