Custom Creation Tool: problems with connection tool [message #633523]

Hi all,

following this answer http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=msg&th=174763& amp; amp;start=0S=2f6d2f1342bce313c5779e790819c5ce I created my custom creation tool, override targetRequest and pick the parameter in [myObject]EditHelper class; but when I tried to do the same with Connection Creation Tool, I'm unable to retrieve the parameter previously set (the request is empty). The only difference I can see between two workflow is the type of TargetRequest I created: CreateUnspecifiedTypeRequest in case of creation tool, CreateUnspecifiedTypeConnectionRequest in case of connection...maybe is this the problem? Anyone knows about?

Thanks,
Giovanni.

I found a solution: in case of ConnectionCreationTool I have to return a CreateConnectionViewRequest as a targetRequest, not a CreateUnspecifiedTypeConnectionRequest... this way, it works.

Hope this helps, bye

Giovanni.
