Utilizando o Framework Xtext na Implementação de uma Linguagem de Domínio Específico para Modelagem e Projeto de Bancos de Dados Relacionais
Abstract
Developing a DSL is not a trivial task, as they are domain-specific programming languages that have their own grammar. Hence, it is necessary to use tools that support the definition of concepts inherent to a new language. This paper presents an experience report in DSL development using the Xtext framework. It aims to show an alternative for defining a textual notation for relational databases conceptual modeling.
