Hi,
Such a bridge is useful when you want to use the tools built on top of the other
meta-meta-model. For example, in Metanool I started to work on an editor for the Fame
descriptions. To do this, we have a translator of Fame objects into Magritte objects
(hacked with Lukas on some train ride). The code is available at:
"Metanool"
Gofer new
squeaksource: 'Metanool';
package: 'Metanool';
load.
The most interesting method is:
FM3MetaDescription>>asMagritteDescription
Cheers,
Doru

I do not know what is your scenario?
Like generating magritte descriptions from the
Fame pragmas.
do you have an example?
because you mean describing Magritte in fame?
Then we could imagine to have a generic editor
for a metamodel and serialization... (like in EMF)
fame already support the functionality of EMF.
I think that Fame should stay a simple metametamodel.
I wrote a very basic piece of code that does the
transformation from Fame to Magritte in some very specific use case and that is something
that is definitely possible.
What do you think ?
I do not know. what is your need?

here is my summary
fame is a minimal meta meta model ( 4 or 5 classes): we use it describe other model (such
as Famix)
based on fame you can load and save model.
Magritte is a meta data driven framework.
you describe specific entity and the tools interpret it.

Hi,
being a end user, I am bit confused with these 2 frameworks: Fame and Magritte.
There are both meta-meta-models. So what make them different from a conceptual point of
view ?
For my models, I would like to have the persistency for free (from Fame) and the UI
edition and model validation for free (from Magritte).
Today I must write two times the description of my language (one in Fame and one in
Magritte), and it feels like I would need only one description.
Any info on this would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Francois
