SAFARI joins Eclipse
Some of you might have heard about the SAFARI project of IBM research. It is basically a framework for building support for arbitrary languages into Eclipse - a kind of meta tooling for Eclipse editors. Well, it is now in Eclipse proposal stage. Very, very nice!Labels: eclipse

Hi Markus,
I have not looked at it yet, but how does SAFARI/Eclipse IMP compare to the XText Framework (part of oaw)? As far as I understood the purpose of the IMP project is to ease the development of IDE tools for general purpose languages, while XText aims at DSLs. Nevertheless, the basic concepts behind both frameworks seem to be similar.
