Common Navigator Framework viewer with EMF [message #423643]

Hi All,

I'm trying to display an EMF model in a Common Navigator Framework (CNF)
viewer and I want to provide the same functionnalities available in my
EMF editor. I mean drag and drop, cut, paste, delete, popup menu, ...

I have a working example that display my EMF model in my viewer but I'm
not able to edit it.

1- Is there existing example that show how to enable all these
functionnalities in CNF viewer?

Thanks,

Vincent

Vincent,

It seems to me the GMF folks were working on such a thing. I have no
experience with this myself. Maybe someone else will chime in
helpfully. :-)

Hi Jeffrey,

In your article, you mentionned that the navigation is not editable and
that you will write an article on this subjet. Did you?

As I said, I was able to display my EMF model in my navigator, but it
doens't support all editing capabilities...

Thanks

Vincent

Hi,
I have followed above mentioned eclipsezone link to bring EMF to common navigator.
However i have two problems,
1. I don't see the Context menu popup on the EMF EObject tree when i right click.
2. I would like to use property editor to edit EMF EObject properties.

Can anyone help me?

Best Regards,
Venkata

This is really old stuff and I don't think anything ever came from that. Some technologies provide integration with the Project Explorer view (which uses the Common Navigator framework), but those don't generally support editing as far as I know. You have to actually open an editor to do editing...

Hi, Capella uses a CNF viewer to edit models. Now I don't say it's pretty, but it works.
