My initial thoughts are "why not!", but can you adhere to the Qt Project's CLA as this is part of you PhD?
The CLA is in place to both protect users of the code, but also to allow relicensing of the code so it's usable in commercial projects, where GPL or LGPL code would not work. I suggest you read the CLA and discuss it with your university first. -- Sent from my Nokia N9 On 8/31/12 16:22 ext Sandro Andrade wrote: Hi there, I'm starting the development of a Qt-based implementation of OMG's MOF specification, as part of my phd project. As far as I know there is no C++/Qt implementation of MOF, only the Java ones based on Eclipse Modelling Framework (which uses ecore instead of pure MOF). IMO, that could be useful in the future to support some model-driven capabilities in Qt Creator like automatic code generation from UML, early architectural analysis (my current focus), etc. I'd like to work upstream in Qt5 instead of providing a separate library. In addition, Qt MOF (or whatever it get named) could also be the foundation for a UML2.4.1 supporting version of Umbrello or other tools interested in model-driven approaches. So, what do you think ?
