How to reload a Papyrus model? [message #1220046] Mon, 09 December 2013 10:56 Go to next message

Hi,

I modify the files ".notation", ".uml" and ".di" of an open Papyrus model with an EOL-script (Epsilon Object Language) which is executed by a command in the context menu. The script creates a new diagram and adds it to the available pages and current selection in the di-file.

If I close and open the model again, everything is fine. But I want to reload the model/resources programmatically while the model stays open. Is there any way to do this?

Hi Maria,

if you modify the .di/.notation/.uml files, the editor will detect the resource change and re-open the file (in older versions of Papyrus, this detection is only done if you change from another editor to the one with the modified diagram). There is currently no way to see changes made on the files without re-opening the editor.

An alternative is to create a diagram programmatically by directly modifying the loaded Papyrus model. In this case, changes are immediately visible. You can find an example here

Hi Ansgar,

thanks for your answer Smile Unfortunately the editor doesn't detect the change (even if I change from another editor back to the modified). Is it possible to initiate this mechanism (re-opening the file/editor) from source code? If there is no way of reloading the editor without reopening it then it would be at least nice to re-open it automatically Wink

So, I found the position in the source code where the editor is reopened Smile For those who are interested:

final IMultiDiagramEditor editor = EditorUtils.getMultiDiagramEditor(); 
Display.getCurrent().asyncExec(new Runnable() {
	public void run() {
		IWorkbench wb = PlatformUI.getWorkbench();
		IWorkbenchPage page = wb.getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage();
		IEditorInput input = editor.getEditorInput();
		page.closeEditor(editor, false);
		try {
			IEditorDescriptor desc = wb.getEditorRegistry().getDefaultEditor(input.getName());
			page.openEditor(input, desc.getId(), false);
		} catch (PartInitException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		}
	}
});
