How to retrieve the current package? [message #518604]

Hello !

I am trying to create a new view in Eclipse that - like the Outline view - is sensitive to the current selection, but should analyze elements in a UML class diagram.

I managed to register a new ISelectionListener to catch any SelectionChangeEvent that the UML editor publishes.

I can get the publisher (an instance of org.eclipse.uml2.diagram.clazz.part.UMLDiagramEditor), and the published selection (a StructuredSelection containing instances of org.eclipse.uml2.diagram.clazz.edit.parts.*).

However, I cannot find any way to retrieve the currently-edited package (an instance of org.eclipse.uml2.uml.* ?).

I'd appreciate any help Smile

Well, I found the answer myself.

In a nutshell - use getAdapter(Element.class) on the selected objects, and then use getNearestPackage() to get their owning package.

In a tutorial - https://svn.cs.bgu.ac.il/trac/benzaita/wiki/HowTo_GetSelecte dUMLElement
