Tutorials and Screencasts

July 14th, 2011 by ashatalin

If you are new to MPS it can be difficult to become familiar with the product. It is important to understand basic approaches connected to project structure, new language creation, editing experience in MPS, etc.

As a first step toward improving MPS documentation we have created a separate section on the MPS Welcome Page in confluence - Tutorials and Screencasts. Currently this page contains materials mostly prepared by Markus Völter (thanks, Markus!).

With the upcoming MPS 2.0 release, we will be adding more screencasts recorded with new MPS version. If you would like to add something or just share your thoughts on the project, please post your comment on the confluence page.

The point of no return

July 4th, 2011 by Václav Pech

The last milestone on our adventurous path towards MPS 2.0 has been passed just a few moments ago. We’re now heading towards the final release in just about a few weeks from now.

The list of additions in M6 is pretty promising:

  • Migration script to translate your projects to 2.0
  • Reorganized and customizable editor tabs
  • The Structre tool and navigation to work with language aspects in a more logical way
  • Quick creation of new default editor by a quick-fix
  • Table editors with row and column selection modes

Now is the best time to read the full description of what’s new and certainly grab M6 from the EAP download page.

Another step forward

May 24th, 2011 by Václav Pech

The MPS Milestone 5 is now waiting for you to grab it and enjoy. This time, there are exactly three changes visible from the outside (plus a lot changes and improvements under the hood, of course):

  1. TypeSystem trace improvements
  2. The ability to run MPS, with your language enhancements applied, directly from MPS
  3. A Power Save Mode to speed-up MPS when dealing with large projects

Read the full description of the new functionality and get the M5 release from the EAP download page.
