Re: STP SCA Component -> STP SCA Tools sub project

Hi Stephane,

Welcome to Tuscany. How will changing the status of STP SCA from a component
to a sub project change its future development and focus?

Tuscany community had asked about tools for SCA and  because of that I
recently added a website page [1] to collect more information about
available open source tools. I added a link to STP there.  It would be great
if you could provide more content about what is available and what version
of Tuscany it works with.

Yes.
I haven't defined components for these tools because they don't seem "big"
enough to create specific components.

Yes.
I have already implemented some of these rules. Currently I don't have
enough resources to work more on this part.

These two last items will be covered by the SCA Integration component and
other components of STP like the SOA System component. I will discuss more
on this (in the coming weeks) with the leaders of the other STP components
that adress packaging, deployment, and policies to define better the role of
everyone.

The proposal looks pretty good to me. I have a few comments/questions:

- Are you going to have tools to create SCA contributions, 
imports/exports, contribution dependencies etc?

- You mention validation rules in the EMF model. Will the tool create 
problems, warnings, tasks etc in the Eclipse problem view?

- Do you have any plans to provide hooks to Run/Debug SCA components 
from the tool?

- Are you going to cover any of the SCA domain and deployment aspects, 
like deploying SCA contributions and composites to an SCA domain shared 
by a team for example?


+1 from me to have Tuscany listed as an interested party.

+1, good for both projects. And to reply to a comment in the original email
- I'm not sure that we really need an explicit vote for this can just assume
from all the positive comments so far and lazy consensus that its fine
unless someone complains (which i'm sure they wont).

Re: STP SCA Component -> STP SCA Tools sub project

This proposal looks good to me.  I'd be happy to see the
Apache Tuscany project listed as an interested party.

The proposal looks pretty good to me. I have a few comments/questions:

- Are you going to have tools to create SCA contributions, 
imports/exports, contribution dependencies etc?

- You mention validation rules in the EMF model. Will the tool create 
problems, warnings, tasks etc in the Eclipse problem view?

- Do you have any plans to provide hooks to Run/Debug SCA components 
from the tool?

- Are you going to cover any of the SCA domain and deployment aspects, 
like deploying SCA contributions and composites to an SCA domain shared 
by a team for example?


+1 from me to have Tuscany listed as an interested party.

Re: STP SCA Component -> STP SCA Tools sub project

Posted by Stéphane Drapeau <st...@gmail.com>.
Haleh, Raymond,

Thank you for your answers.

Haleh, you're right. I make no distinction between tools for SCA developers
and tools for SCA users. The goal of the project is to develop tools to help
users of the SCA technology. I will modify my sentence.

Re: STP SCA Component -> STP SCA Tools sub project

Posted by haleh mahbod <hm...@gmail.com>.
Hi Stephan,

This looks good since it looks like tools for SCA will get more focus :)
I have a question.

You mention "the goals of the new sub-project are to develop a set of
tools for SCA developers and SCA users".

What is the difference between SCA developer and SCA user in this context?

Re: STP SCA Component -> STP SCA Tools sub project

Hi Stephan,

This looks good since it looks like tools for SCA will get more focus :)
I have a question.

You mention "the goals of the new sub-project are to develop a set of
tools for SCA developers and SCA users".

What is the difference between SCA developer and SCA user in this context?

Re: STP SCA Component -> STP SCA Tools sub project

Posted by Raymond Feng <en...@gmail.com>.
Hi,

The proposal looks good to me. IMO, having SCA tools as a sub-project under 
STP will benefit the growing SCA community. I look forward to seeing an 
smooth end-to-end development/deployment experience with better alignment 
between the two projects.

Thanks,
Raymond

Re: STP SCA Component -> STP SCA Tools sub project

Posted by Stéphane Drapeau <st...@gmail.com>.
 Hi Jean-Sebastien, Haleh, all,

The proposal is a 3 pages document describing the scope/intent of the
proposed project.

The outline is:
1. Introduction: the proposition of the transformation of the STP/SCA
component into a sub-project named SCA Tools under the top level project
STP.
2. Background: presentation of STP + presentation of the existing STP/SCA
component.
3. Description: the goals of the new sub-project are to develop a set of
tools for SCA developers and SCA users. Another goal is also to link this
sub-project with other components of STP (Service Creation, Policy Editor)
4. Proposed components: SCA Domain Model (SCA meta model), SCA Composite
Designer, SCA Composite Editors (tree, xml and form), SCA Integration
(integration with other STP components)
 5. Relationship with Other Eclipse Projects: STP, EMF, GMF, M2M, ...
6. Organization: this sub-project will take place under the top level
project STP.
7. A list of proposed initial committers.
8. Code Contribution: the Eclipse STP/SCA component will be the initial
code.
 9. Interested parties: this section lists companies and communities that
support the creation of the project. They don't take other engagements.
10. Tentative Plan for 2008 and 2009.

Our goal is to identify formally the scope of the tools that we develop
around SCA. The new status will provide some advantages.
- I think that the SCA tools will be more visible in the Eclipse community
if we are identified as a sub-project.
 - From the users point of view, it will not change anything.
- Concerning us, we should be more formal: clear roadmap, new features
described/discussed first in bugzilla, ...
 - It will also present some advantages for Obeo by becoming a sub-project
leader.

In the near future all STP components will become STP sub-projects. To
summarize, all of this is purely administrative.
I will send you the proposal document ASAP.
 If you have any questions, don't hesitate.

Haleh, yesterday I sent you more information about the SCA Composite
Designer on the thread named "[Website] - Tooling for Java SCA". You can add
it on the web page. Tell me if you need more/different information.
My post describes what version of Tuscany can be used. I also introduce a
tutorial that I made. This tutorial is based on the SCA designer and Tuscany
1.1.

Best regards,

Stéphane Drapeau
