The Ecore Tools component will provide a complete environment to create, edit and maintain Ecore models. This component will ease handling of Ecore models with a Graphical Ecore Editor and bridges to other existing Ecore tools (Validation, Search, Compare, Emfatic, generators...). The Graphical Ecore Editor will provide multi-diagram support, a custom tabbed properties view, validation feedbacks, refactoring capabilities, etc. The long-term goal is to provide the same level of services as does JDT for Java.
