Hi everybody,
I am beginner in eclipse and I am in the process of creating a graphical editor with GMF. I want to include SVG images in my editor, I followed the steps provided in the tutorial http://wiki.eclipse.org/GMF_Tutorial_BPMN,
Here is my code specific to the createNodeShape() method:

/**
* @generated NOT
*/
protected IFigure createNodeShape() {
java.net.URL url = FileLocator.find(AaaDiagramEditorPlugin.getInstance().getBun dle(), (IPath) new Path("icons/obj16.svg"), null); //$NON-NLS-1$
return new ScalableImageFigure(RenderedImageFactory.getInstance(url), true, true, true);

}

The problem is that it does not accept getInstance (url) and displays the following:
The method getInstance(URL) is undefined for the type RenderedImageFactory.

I need your help.
Thank you in advance.

Hi,

the tutorial is old.
I advice you to use SVGFigue which are provided by gmf experimental SDK. You can get them directly on your gmfgraph.

Thank you for your answer,
sorry to ask you again, SVGFigure requires no modification of the generated code?

No, I had nothing changed in the code, except to add some dependencies.

Thanks a lot.

I have done as you have said to me but it does not accept org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.lite.svg that I am writing in implementation bundle figure gallery (marked in red in dependencies).
Moreover I don't know if document URI that I write for SVGFigure is correct or not:
platform:/plugin/A.diagram/images/compose.svg
Sorry for the question which may be stupid!
Please tell me where is the problem?

my svg uri

this.setURI("platform:/plugin/test.svg.custom.diagram/images/some.svg ");

projectname: test.svg.custom.diagram
folder: images
SVGPicture: some.svg

this is the uri;

and i guess you dont have the experimental sdk installed.
