metaEditor - Browse, Edit Instance Data
metaEditor demonstrates the advantages of generic and completely model-driven applications. Using metaEditor you can access / edit / analyze instance data right after finishing the data model.
Access control is automatically provided by the submodel security schema. The creation of an individual "metaEditor" for groups of users requires only a definition of a submodel in the repository.
metaEditor is implemented as a set of Eclipse-Plugins to provide several views to browse, edit, search data in the repository. The plugins can be configured by insertions points. Additional plugins can extend the functionality.
