Hi,

I've tried to use
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getEditorRegistry().getDefaultEdit or( ".../somemodel.uml")
to get a hold of the default editor for UML models but it returns null
(I have UML installed - the version that ships with the Ganymede
modeling distribution - and on double-click the UML tree editor pops up
as expected).

I've iterated through the entries in the editor registry
(PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getEditorRegistry()) but there doensn't seem
to be one for "uml". Does the UML editor use an alternative way of
binding the extension to the editor?

Cheers,
Dimitris

Dimitrios,

I tried both getDefaultEditor("foo.uml") and getEditors("foo.uml") and
both return the UML tree editor (as part of the results, in the second
case). If I inspect the editor registry internals
(contentTypeToEditorMappings), I see the UML editor associated to the
multiple content types contributed by UML2.

Are you sure you have the UML2 plug-ins in your target platform? When
you tried to open an editor for a *.uml file, did you that in your dev
Eclipse instance or from the same instance where your own code is running?

Cheers,

Rafael
