Overview
Mint provides a framework and tools for enhancing the interaction between JDT and EMF while developing model-driven software.
Features
This release brings new functionality, such as a wizard for cleaning artifacts generated from a model and a view of artifacts linked to a model. Existing functionality has also been improved; e.g., the ability to distinguish between generated types that are themselves customized vs. types that contain generated members that are individually customized.
Additional information can be found on the New and Noteworthy page.
This release also contains fixes for bugs reported by the community.
Non-Code Aspects
Unit tests have been extended to cover the added functionality and verify bug fixes. Missing documentation has been added.
Quality of APIs
The project lead certifies that the requirements for Eclipse Quality APIs have been met for this release. Non-API classes are separated from the exposed API through an internal package in the namespace.
Release Engineering
Mint currently uses the Modeling Project Releng infrastructure, with plans to move to Buckmister-based build using Hudson. JUnit test suite is automatically executed as part of each build.
Mint has been integrated into Helios since November 2009.
