[Eugenia] gmf.label for EAttribute [message #997577]

The tutorial on EuGENia and GMF specifies that we can tag the EAttribute with gmf.label, displaying the tagged attribute underneath the default label. But, the display is rather simple: it's the value of the attribute (for example : "true" or "false" for a boolean).

I would like to be able to write before the value a string to introduce it (for example : "isWhatever :") and then the value (to make for example : "isWhatever : true").

gmf.node allow to define a label.pattern property which just does what I want, but it seems to be not allowed for a gmf.label on EAttribute.

How could I do, without too much GMF troubles?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Franck,

Hmm, I don't think that we support the label.pattern property for @gmf.label on EAttributes, but I can see how it would be useful! Please could you file an enhancement request, and I'll look into it (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=EMFT.Epsilon)?

In the meantime, you may be able to use a polishing transformation to change the label in the GMF models, which is generated by Eugenia: http://www.eclipse.org/epsilon/doc/articles/eugenia-polishing/

Hope that helps!

Cheers,
Louis.
