    <p>First of all, I wonder why you consider Acceleo more difficult to learn than Xpand, while both languages have differences (blocks and delimiters for example) they have quite a similar structure. I won't details all the elements in both languages but, for example, I don't see such a difference between something like:</p> <blockquote> <p>«FOREACH myAttributes AS a»«a.name»«ENDFOREACH»</p> </blockquote> <p>and</p> <blockquote> <p>[for (a: Attribute|myAttributes)][a.name/][/for]</p> </blockquote> <p>Both are template based languages and as such they have quite the same structure. The main difference between Acceleo and Xpand comes from the fact that Acceleo is based on the standards MOFM2T and OCL from the OMG and the tooling.</p> <p>I am not very familiar with Xpand tooling but you can find more about it on their <a href="http://wiki.eclipse.org/Xpand/New_And_Noteworthy" rel="noreferrer">wiki</a>. Acceleo on the other side contains an editor with syntax highlighting, code completion, error detection, refactoring and more. It also contains a debugger, a profiler, Ant and Maven support. You can also easily deploy your generators as Eclipse plugin for other users or use them out of Eclipse in a regular Java application. You can find more information on Acceleo <a href="http://wiki.eclipse.org/Acceleo/Features" rel="noreferrer">here</a>. You can see in videos most of the features of Acceleo on the <a href="http://www.obeonetwork.com/page/topcased-days-2011" rel="noreferrer">Obeo Network</a> (registration required).</p> <p>Finally, the latest activity on xPand as occurred <a href="http://dash.eclipse.org/dash/commits/web-app/summary.cgi?company=y&amp;month=x&amp;project=modeling.m2t.xpand" rel="noreferrer">a year ago</a> while Acceleo is <a href="http://dash.eclipse.org/dash/commits/web-app/summary.cgi?company=y&amp;month=x&amp;project=modeling.m2t.acceleo" rel="noreferrer">actively</a> developed. You can even follow the Acceleo development on <a href="https://github.com/eclipse/acceleo/commits/master" rel="noreferrer">github</a> if you want.</p> <p>Stephane Begaudeau</p> <p><strong>Disclaimer: I am one of the member of the Acceleo dev' team.</strong></p>

    1. COAppreciate the answer! From what I'm reading though, it seems they almost have the same features (not sure about debugging/profiling). I will take a closer look at Acceleo anyway, just to see if I like it more than Xpand :)

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
