Hi Davide,
Your question is not nothing simple, it's a complete project. Some tricks to start to work:
- Learn how to create Eclipse Plug-ins and how works Eclipse. Very Important!
- Using objectContributions, for example, as plug-in extensions of your diagram editor A, create some actions that helps you to collect the objects selected in the diagram "A" and save this objects in memory in some property of your class diagram editor A, adding public accesors to this class to give access from the environment to the selected objects.
- Later, in your diagram editor B, you must create some context menu actions (for example) that helps you to import the objects selected in the editor A. You must explore the editors opened and give support to the user to select the correct source diagram editor instance and access to the accesors created before... Other trick:
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage().getEditorReferences();
Give you the references to the opened editors
- In a third step, executed the before action over the diagram editor B, you must modify the underlining model resource (learn how to work EMF, Resources and ResourcesSets) associated with the diagram editor B, add the EObjects imported to this model, and make a refresh of the editor. It's posible that your imported objects appears delocalized.... For this reason it's posible that you must relocate this objects programmatically.
You have much work to do.... be patient... and research in the information available.
Regards and good luck with your develepment!!!
