Migration to GMF 2.2: Compile errors [message #487664]

Hi everyone,

I have been working on migration of my product from Eclipse 3.4 to Eclipse 3.5 and I have got the following compilation errors:

I have a class called ArchevolViewProvider which basically extends org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.diagram.core.providers.AbstractViewP rovider, both of them are generated by GMF.

The problems is that somehow methods in the class ArchevolViewProvider try to override methods in AbstractViewProvider, which are final. One of such methods is createDiagram(IAdaptable contextElement, java.lang.String diagramKind, PreferencesHint preferencesHint) method.

I didn't post it as a bug, because I'm not sure if it's really a bug or not. Did anyone before had same kind of problems? I would appreciate if you can help me.

P.S. I did use Migrate to GMF 2.2.

regards,

Hi,

I'm also using GMF 2.2 and I don't have any problems.

Quote:

The problems is that somehow methods in the class ArchevolViewProvider try to override methods in AbstractViewProvider, which are final. One of such methods is createDiagram(IAdaptable contextElement, java.lang.String diagramKind, PreferencesHint preferencesHint) method.

In my case the (generated) implementation looks a little bit different:

public class SampelViewProvider extends AbstractProvider implements
		IViewProvider { ....}

I suppose there could be some difficulties when GMF tries to merge your previous implementation (perhaps before 2.2) with your actual generator model. Did you try to delete the regarding class and simply regenerate your diagram editor?

Best regards,

sas
