I need to develop an eclipse plugin for developing Collaborative Modeling Editor. I have only basic eclipse knowledge. How can I develop collaborative editors in Eclipse? Can I use ECF for doing this?
If so, Anyone please give me a hint, how to start with developing Collaborive editor?
If you want to create a collaborative diagram editor, you can use the CDO project that provides a collaborative back-end for EMF models. It can handle persistency, conflicts and communication for you. CDO is an official project of the Eclipse Foundation under the EMF category. You can find more about CDO here. There is a sub-project of CDO called Dawn that aims at creating a common framework for those who want to build a collaborative tooling for EMF models. It is a framework that can handle most of the work with CDO for you. You should definitively look at it.
You can find more about Dawn and CDO with their presentations.
Disclaimer: I am the leader of an EMF based project of the Eclipse Foundation.
