Eclipse is mainly known as an IDE. Lesser known are the features for model driven development.
This tutorial will give an overview about the relevant eclipse technologies for graphical and textual modelling, model validation, model transformation and code generation. Attendees will put hands on practical exercises using textual and graphical models. Options and limits will be shown to get a decision basis for a possible application on their own development work.
