HOPEX Studio : Customizing the Metamodel : Introduction to MEGA Studio
   
Introduction to MEGA Studio
 
Presentation of MEGA Studio
Each organization is unique, with its own culture and methods. Ready-to-run software often integrates in the organization to only a limited extent. An activity as strictly regulated as enterprise architecture modeling gains in flexibility when the software tool can adapt to methodological recommendations, to demands of the domain and to graphical preferences. MEGA Studio allows you to implement and manage customizations and MEGA metamodel extensions as well as to adapt the tool to your own particular use.
MEGA Studio aims at simplifying product customizations using an ergonomic graphical interface. A MEGA Studio navigator allows you to precisely configure the multiple aspects of the MEGA environment: navigation, object properties pages, diagram types, modeling rules and the graphical interface.
Customizations or extensions that can be made to the metamodel can impact various aspects of MEGA:
the creation of new concepts or new attributes. The metamodel diagram allows you to easily create MetaClasses and to create MetaAssociations between the different MetaClasses.
the exploitation and use of the newly-created concepts. This means being able to show them in diagrams, use them in navigation trees, and being able to customize their properties pages.
