Obeo is proud to announce the public release of Obeo Designer 6.1, the new version of its modeling workbench for complex systems. It brings many improvements, in particular the collaborative mode. Some news features are also introduced with for example an attractive HTML export and the constraints visualization with the bracket edge style. An evaluation version is freely downloadable from http://www.obeodesigner.com.

A new release of Obeo Designer, the workbench to easily create your own graphical representations fit to your business domain, is now available. The version 6.1 strengthens the existing features, most notably its collaborative mode that is now faster and more responsive.

Collaborate intuitively, instantaneously

Thanks to the feedback of the users, our collaborative mode is now deployed by several industrials. The chosen approach tackles inherent problems of collaboration based on a revision control system. With Obeo Designer, your teams will work in a flexible manner with the following benefits:

  • Fine grained lock mechanism for editing elements
  • Automatic locking of modified elements
  • No manual merge: no more endless synchronization step
  • Real-time updates for all users

Export your models into HTML + Javascript pages

One more new feature that Obeo Designer 6.1 brings is the HTML export. You can now automatically export your models along with their associated representations into an HTML browsable site allowing for example to ease the exchanges with non-technical colleagues.

Screenshot HTML Export

Obeo Designer also brings along advanced traceability features for code generation. It will detect and correct all incoherences and synchronization problems between your application code and your models.

What's new in Obeo Designer

Obeo Designer 5.0 integrates Acceleo 3.0 as the solution for code generation and features for synchronization between models and generated code. Acceleo is an official project of the Eclipse Foundation since 2009 and has become the reference solution for the Eclipse code generation. The new version implements the OMG's Model-to-text specification. On the Viewpoint side, several new representations are now available: sequences diagrams, and trees.

The latest version introduces:

  • Trees representation. Trees allow to bring a hierarchical viewpoint of datas, as they can provide a lot of informations in a clear and concise way.
  • Sequences Diagrams with all the complex constructions (inspired from UML).
  • Possibility to document the Viewpoint, Representation Description and Layer for the end-user.
  • Quick search from a diagram.
  • Acceleo 3.0 with most of the features that can be expected from a top quality code generator IDE.
