<h1>Pattern editor</h1>
<p>The Pattern editor provides specialized features for editing a pattern model.</p>
<p>The editor includes the following features:</p>
<ul>
<li>Multiple pages editor : one page per concept</li>
<li>Names validation : pattern, parameters, methods</li>
<li>Automatic generation of internal content</li>
<li>Links with external editors : templates and Java code</li>
</ul>
<p>
The only ways to invoke the Pattern editor
is either by double-clicking an in-development pattern in the <a href="../../../org.eclipse.egf.engine.doc/html/reference/views/views-factoryComponentExplorer.html">Factory Component Explorer</a> view,
or by double-clicking a deployed one in the <a href="../../../org.eclipse.egf.engine.doc/html/reference/views/views-factoryComponents.html">Factory Components</a> view.
</p>
<p>
The editor is also automatically invoked when a new pattern is created, using the <a href="../../../org.eclipse.egf.engine.doc/html/reference/wizards/wizards-new-pattern.html">New Pattern Wizard</a>.
