11.3 The Meta Browser
FAMIX is a family of meta-models and it is meant to be extended. To browse the landscape of the FAMIX implementation at any point in time, we have a dedicated browser that offers a logical view of the meta-descriptions.
The Meta Browser can be can be spawned from the Moose menu or by executing:
MooseModel browseMeta
The browser shows the hierarchy of classes to the top-left. Selecting an class shows both the references to other classes and the primitive properties. At the bottom, a map of the overall class hierarchies is provided as a Mondrian visualization. The current selection is shown on the map in red. Furthermore, the comment of the current selection is shown to the right.
The picture below shows the browser focused on the SourcedEntity
and on the sourceAnchor
property.
