Hi,

in my program I create a Comment like this:

// owner is a Class
// port is a port of owner

Comment comment = owner.createOwnedComment();
comment.getAnnotatedElements().add(port);

But as mentioned, it doesn't show in the model view and after creating the view, it doesn't show in the editor neither.

I already asked on uml2 forum, I did what they told, but no results, so they told me to ask here.

Thanks in advance, 123star

Hi 123star,

It seems peculiar:

How do you create your comment.?Do you use the framework gmf, by using palette creation command?

Or do you execute a semantic command and then do you call the drop command?

It could be important, because commands are executed in the context of a transaction.

Notifications have been done only at this end of the transaction.
In the case of the framework of gmf (transaction contains semantic creation +view creation) So it can be the reason that you see only the comment after the view creation.

Hi Patrick,

The comment doesn't show in the model view.
The comment doesn't show in the editor.
The comment is like it never existed, so I think there's a problem in the way I create it.

I create the Comment executing a RecordingCommand in a TransactionalEditingDomain:

Command cmd = new RecordingCommand(domain) {
  protected void doExecute() {
    //owner is a Component
    Comment comment = owner.createOwnedComment();
    //edits the comment, e.g. apply stereotype to it
    //creates the view:
   ViewDescriptor viewDescriptor = new ViewDescriptor(
                new EObjectAdapter(comment), Node.class,
                                ((IHintedType) org.eclipse.papyrus.diagram.composite.providers.UMLElementTypes
                                        .getElementType(CommentEditPart.VISUAL_ID)).getSemanticHint(),
                                diagEpart.getDiagramPreferencesHint());

   viewDescriptor.setPersisted(true);

   CreateViewRequest req = new CreateViewRequest(viewDescriptor);
		
   Command comm = ownerPart.getCommand(req);
   comm.execute();
   
  }
}

domain.getCommandStack().execute(cmd);




I think it's not the best way to do it, but it's the only way I managed to get the visualization in the editor working( I've used it with ports).

Do you say that it's better if I use a command that create the element and the view at the same time?
Can you explain how?

Thank you again, 123star
