EditpartFactory does not get called [message #244738]

Hi

I got some strange behavior. I created a custom tool in the palette and
when I click the palette. The tool is working fine but the only problem is
that EditpartFactory does not get called when I call XXWritingShape. Apart
from XXWritingShape, everything is working well.

Here is the part of code.

private static PaletteContainer createToolsGroup(PaletteRoot palette) {
toolGroup.add(new XXwritingToolEntry());
}
public class FreeHandwritingToolEntry extends ToolEntry {

public Tool createTool()
{
return new XXwritingTool();
}
}

public class XXwritingTool extends CreationTool {
public XXwritingTool()
{
super();
setFactory(new XXwritingToolFactory());
setUnloadWhenFinished(false);
}

public class XXEditPartFactory implements EditPartFactory {
private EditPart getPartForElement(Object modelElement) {

if (modelElement instanceof XXDiagram) {
return new XXDiagramEditPart(modelElement);
}
if (modelElement instanceof Shape) {
eturn new ShapeEditPart(modelElement);
}
if (modelElement instanceof Connection) {
return new ConnectionEditPart(modelElement);
}
if(modelElement instanceof XXWritingShape) {
return new XXShapeEditPart();
}
}

hi,

Two possibles ways :
- does XXWritingShape inherit from Shape ? if it's right your factory
will create only ShapeEditParts.
- Did you implements correctly the getModelChildren() of the editpart
in which you try to add a new XXWritingShape ?

good luck!
