[Eugenia] Generating common super edit parts [message #1058204]

Hi all

when using EMF/EMFatic we're modeling our domain with a class hierarchy, i.e. we have domain elements that have a supertype.

class File extends Resource {}
class Folder extends Resource {}

On the diagram side, this hierarchy is not generated for the diagram's edit parts, but this would be tremendously helpful, when implementing common diagram behavior (i.e. to find/select all elements of a specific type).

How can we best achieve this?

Thanks for your help,
Kaspar

Hi Kaspar,

I may be wrong but I'm afraid it's GMF that's flattening the class hierarchy (possibly to deal with potential multiple inheritance which is permitted in Ecore but not in Java), so there's not much Eugenia can do about this.

Cheers,
Dimitris
