Hello Antoine,
I would like to add elements to a BPMN diagram in the editor, similar to
what Milan tries to do.
I checked out the HEAD versions of org.eclipse.stp.bpmn,
org.eclipse.stp.bpmn.diagram, and org.eclipse.stp.bpmn.edit. I use
Eclipse 3.3.1.1 with EMF from the Europa Update Site and GMF version 1.0.3.
But the code regenerated from "bpmn.gmfgen" contains errors. Do I use
the wrong GMF version?
Regards,
Hans
