[teiid-designer-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (TEIIDDES-1071) Improve usability for primary end-to-end use cases

[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIIDDES-1071?page=com.atlassian.jira.plu... ] Paul Richardson edited comment on TEIIDDES-1071 at 4/10/12 8:06 AM: -------------------------------------------------------------------- Comments runtime: 1) Could views be stacked under the same multi-page view to link them together? 2) Use of toolbar buttons rather the context menu entries? 3) Can file-based data sources be automatically copied over to the teiid instance? 4) Can the SQL entered in the SQL scrapbook provide the list of tables resident in the VDB. This would provide the user with a hint as to the table names available to them. The link back to the base table in the ViewModel is not immediately obvious, eg. instead of "SELECT * FROM <table-name>" do "SELECT * FROM EmployeeInfo" "SELECT * FROM AnotherTable1" "SELECT * FROM AnotherTable2" 5) Guides view is a welcome addition as it nicely groups together the tasks to be done. Can this be incorporated into a welcome screen / main control view/editor that is the base for all modelling? Comments development: 1) Can the plugins be split into feature directories, eg. libs, UI, metamodel etc..? Would allow features of features to be created and flexibility as to what plugins users wanted to install, eg. those with only database datasources would have no need for the flat-file plugins. was (Author: phantomjinx): Suggestions from user perspective: 1) Could views be stacked under the same multi-page view to link them together? 2) Use of toolbar buttons rather the context menu entries? 3) Can file-based data sources be automatically copied over to the teiid instance? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
