| Definition of the MSL meta-model support service provider API. MSL clients can |
| customize various aspects of the MSL behaviour by providing a meta-model |
| support implementation. |
| |
| <h2>Package Specification</h2> |
| <p> |
| The meta-model service provider API consists of: |
| <ul> |
| <li>{@link org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.emf.core.services.metamodel.IMetamodelSupport}: |
| specification of a meta-model. A meta-model provides information about |
| structural relationships between metaclasses ({@link org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EClass}es), |
| semantic procedures (similar to database triggers), etc.</li> |
| <li>{@link org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.emf.core.services.metamodel.IMetamodelSupportProvider}: |
| interface for objects that map {@link org.eclipse.emf.ecore.EPackage}s to |
| <code>IMetamodelSupport</code>s. Providers are registered on the |
| <tt>org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.emf.core.MetaModelProviders</tt> extension point</li> |
| </ul> |
| </p> |
