These are the main issues: +* Instead of using EL, it directly uses Java code in the JSPs. +* Instead of including the libraries using AMD, they are directly included via `script` tags. +* Instead of using [AngularJS] (or a similar framework), we manually do the life update from the properties section to the node +* Saving generates the XML manually (in index.jsp:save()). Therefore the extensibility of TOSCA is not supported here. +* We depend on both bootstrap and jquery UI as jsPlumb does not support a bootstrap binding. + +### Trouble shooting +When the topology modeler does not fully load (i.e., a white background is still there), look at the TOMCAT log file (of the repository). +You'll see something like `TOSCA component id class org.eclipse.winery.common.ids.definitions.NodeTypeId / {http://www.example.org/tosca/nodetypes}VirtualMachine not found`. +This is in indicator that you manually edited a `.definitions` file and did not change the location in the repository. +The directory structure and the namespace and id/name settings in the `.definitions` file have to be in sync. +As quick solution, you can open the type, switch to the XML tab and press "Save". +Then, the namespace and id/name setting in the `.definitions` is changed according to the storage. + +## License +Copyright (c) 2012-2014 University of Stuttgart. + +All rights reserved.
