The Extended Editing Framework (EEF) team have released Milestone 5 of version 0.8.0 for Eclipse.

EEF aims to improve the Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) model creation phase by providing additional components dedicated to editing the Properties of EMF elements; and a default generation based on standard metamodels using these components. These generators create a standard architecture with graphical components for editing EMF model objects.

Version 0.8.0 M5 introduces the ability to manage eReferences on Abstract types, and adds a JFace Viewer and generic form pages. Full details can be accessed at the New & Noteworthy.

This version is part of the Helios build train.
