Abstract: Facing the difficulty and long time consuming in GEF editor development, a kind of software architecture for automatically generating a GEF editor is proposed, which is implemented in the GEF editor generator (GEG) plug-in as a MDA tool. It can generate a full functional graphical editor within Eclipse by following the EMF way to generate code: JET and JMerge, and taking advantage of EMF.edit adapter mechanism. In the system design and implementation, two EMF meta-models are introduced: configuration meta-model and view meta-model.

Key words: EMF, GEF, Configuration meta-model, View meta-model, Application model

摘要： 针对当前GEF编辑器开发难度大、开发周期长的问题，设计了一个能够自动生成GEF图形编辑器的MDA工具GEG的体系结构。它利用EMF的代码自动生成方法JET和JMerge，以及EMF.edit提供的适配器机制，生成了一个完整的基于Eclipse平台的图形编辑器插件。在系统设计和实现过程中，引入了配置元模型和视图元模型。
