Package sk.uniba.euromath.editor Description

Editor - Core of Multi Editor Architecture

Euromath2 is built on Multi Editor Architecture (MEA is only part of architecture). This architecture with help of Euromath2 core(GENE, ...) enables to edit mutli-namespace xml documents. Process of editation is broken to two: rendering and editing (IRenderer, IEditor). Renderer renders xml into DRAW2D figures and editor play role of GUI and reflects user interaction to changes of xml data. Base coordination and collaboration model for renderers and editors is implemented. Renedering and editing abilities are extensiable by plugins. Also common editor and common text editor is implemented. Action contribution model to standard bars for IEditors is provided.

Product of GENE is input to this architecture. GENE produces document fragments, every fragment in one namespace. GeneDataProvider collects output of GENE, with help of available IRenderers renders fragments and passes work to EditorSite. EditorSite chooses and initializes IEditors with rendered view for each fragment. Process of updating view after modification document is a little different from this described, but in hearth same.

MultiViewXMLEditor brings chance of more open presentation views over one opened xml document with lower memory costs. In this context, EditorSite acts as view.
