Henshin 0.9.6 released

We are happy to announce the release of version 0.9.6 of Henshin. If you don't know it yet, Henshin is a model transformation language for the Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) and is based on visual graph transformation rules. Below, you see two pretty much self-explaining example transformation rules in Henshin.

The Henshin transformation language itself is defined in EMF and provides you with powerful concepts including declarative rules, imparative control-flow constructs and attribute calculations in JavaScript. Transformations are executed using an interpreter engine with a stable light-weight API and can be analyzed using state space generation tools and a profiler.

Henshin 0.9.6 comes with lots of improvements in the graphical and the tree-based editors, including support for different color modes (essentially themes). Both the transformation language and the interpreter API are stable and thus fully backward compatible. The interpreter itself now understands expressions like "[a,b,c]" for multi-valued attributes. All in all, I think we are on a good way towards version 1.0!
