Preface

Thank you for purchasing MetaEdit+®, a new generation metaCASE tool. MetaCase sincerely hopes that this tool will offer you the functionality you need for your work.

MetaEdit+ comes in two versions:
MetaEdit+, which is a fully functional CASE environment with wide modelling language support, documentation and code generators. This manual provides information about MetaEdit+.
MetaEdit+ Workbench, which offers you metaCASE features allowing you to create CASE tool support for your own lanaguages and generators. Workbench also provides more advanced external interfacing options via API and XML import/export formats. The more advanced features of the MetaEdit+ Workbench are described in a separate manual, ‘MetaEdit+ Workbench User’s Guide’.
Some external interfacing, import and export features of MetaEdit+ Workbench are also available for MetaEdit+ with the API add-on product. The basic usage of these optional features is explained in this manual: sections discussion such features not available in all versions of MetaEdit+ are clearly marked.

In addition, all versions of MetaEdit+ are available for single and multi-user environments. The differences caused by a multi-user environment are explained in this manual, where they affect the normal user. ‘MetaEdit+ System Administrator’s Guide’ explains in more detail how to set up MetaEdit+ for multiple users.
