| # Contributing to Eclipse EMF |
| |
| Thanks for your interest in this project. |
| |
| ## Project description |
| |
| Eclipse EMF is a modeling framework and code generation facility for building |
| tools and other applications based on a structured data model. From a model |
| specification described in XMI, EMF provides tools and runtime support to |
| produce a set of Java classes for the model, a set of adapter classes that |
| enable viewing and command-based editing of the model, and a basic editor. |
| Models can be specified using annotated Java, XML documents, or modeling tools |
| like Rational Rose, then imported into EMF. Most important of all, EMF provides |
| the foundation for interoperability with other EMF-based tools and applications. |
| |
| Eclipse XSD is a library that provides an API for manipulating the components of |
| an XML Schema as described by the W3C XML Schema specifications, as well as an |
| API for manipulating the DOM-accessible representation of XML. |
