Hello Nick,
You've faced an interesting task.
To implement such link, add a fake label in your mapping first. To do it,
create Feature Label Mapping in your Link mapping, set Diagram Label and
all the required information. You cannot set Features property, so skip it.
Validation will warn you of missing 'feature' property. Generate gmfgen file,
ignoring the warning.
After that, you can find GenLinkLabel LabelEditPart inside your GenLink.
Giving labels smart names is a good style. So, name the label, for example,
AsssemplyConnectorEditPart. Generate UML2Tools diagram.
It's time for the most interesting and difficult part. You have to write
a parser, which implements org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.common.ui.services.parser.IParser,
for your label. UML2Tools parsers are located in org.eclipse.uml2.diagram.clazz.parser.*,
org.eclipse.uml2.diagram.common.parser.* packages. Feel free to use them
as an inspiration. Implementing a parser is the most sophisticated part of
the functionality. After required parser is implemented, it has to be known
by UMLParserProvider. Find appropriate 'create*Parser()' method, tag it as
'generated NOT' and change it to return your newly-implemented parser.
That's all.
Best wishes,
Tatiana.
