Dogen v0.90.0, "Aida"

Overview

One more sprint of internal refactorings, leading us close to the end result. The focus continued on the quilt.cpp model.

There were still a number of user visible changes:

• introduction of profiles: meaning its no longer necessary to setup each facet's configuration on each diagram; users can create or reuse profiles.
• integration of stereotypes with profiles: it's now possible to annotate an element with a stereotype and, if a profile with the same name exists, dogen will apply the profile to the element.
• deprecation of the service stereotype: it has been replaced by handcrafted. With this change we now generate class skeletons for hand-crafted code.
• mixing of hand-crafted and generated code code is now possible at the element level: if a hand-crafted element declares a number of attributes and marks the IO facet as overwritable, dogen will generate IO support (and serialisation and so forth) for this element.
• rename of a lot of the meta-data tags: removed the postfix _formatter.
