Abstract

Even though visual languages have been often regarded as better suited for some Domain Specific Languages (DSL), we explore the possibilities textual languages provide to DSLs. Visual languages do excel in intuitiveness, however, they come in short in some of the mentioned advantages textual languages do have. Moreover, we also explore the Xtext framework for creating DSLs and how does it measure with the common requirements of DSLs.

  Abstract 2

Even though visual languages have been often regarded as better suited for some Domain Specic Languages (DSL), we explore textual DSLs with the Xtext framework by creating a DSL for use cases and generating from them sequence diagrams through a model-to-model transformation and a subsequent model-to-text transformation with the tools provided by Xtext.
