Description Axel Uhl CLA 2010-11-03 08:10:07 EDT
Build Identifier:  20100917-0705

When many subscribers (Adapters) want to receive change notifications from EMF models, today they typically each implement their own filter conditions. When notified, each Adapter checks whether the Notification matches their condition. Effort increases linearly with the number of adapters/filter conditions, as can be seen in the current ResourceSetListener implementation

There should be a more scalable implementation that consolidates the filter conditions and carries out the match-making process more efficiently and scalably as the number of filter conditions increases.

The patch attached provides such an implementation.

Reproducible: Always

Find the archive deprecating https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/attachment.cgi?id=182569&action=edit here:

Unfortunately, it slightly exceeds the 2MB limit.

Renamed everything to org.eclipse.ocl.examples.* and added bundles that previously were missing for test support

Sorry, forget my last comment; it was intended to go to 323223...
Comment 6 Axel Uhl CLA 2011-01-05 17:36:22 EST
As the event manager forms the foundation of the OCL Impact Analyzer on which we are working (see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=323223), I committed the event manager bundle and corresponding test bundle to HEAD at org.eclipse.mdt/org.eclipse.ocl/examples/org.eclipse.ocl.examples.eventmanager[.tests].
Comment 7 Ed Willink CLA 2011-01-10 12:12:54 EST
This code is required by the Impact Analyzer OCL example and so is being prepared for appearance as further OCL examples plugins as part of Bug 323223.

It may be appropriate to raise a separate Bugzilla to migrate this code to EMF core or a separate EMF sub-project after Indigo.
