itemProviderAdapterFactories [message #636333]

I have a model with 5 packages, but when I generate the edit plugin, only two of them contribute org.eclipse.emf.edit.itemProviderAdapterFactories extensions. I don't know of any differences between the packages and would like them all to contribute to the extension point. Any idea what is going on here?

Thanks,

Mike

Mike,

Do they all contain EClasses? Do some generate the
XyzItemProviderAdapterFactory but not the registration for them in the
plugin.xml? Note that the plugin.xml doesn't regenerate once it exists,
so you'd need to delete it to regenerate it.

Thanks for the response, Ed. Following your advice, I was able to fix the problem by deleting plugin.xml and regenerating. Do I only need to delete and regenerate the xxx.edit plugin.xml when I add packages to my model, or should I delete all of them?

Unfortunately, I customize the generated plugin.xml, so deleting, regenerating, and recustomizing is painful. Is there a recommended way of handling this?

Thanks again,

Mike

Mike,

Unfortunately we don't yet support merging of the plugin.xml so either
you add things manually, or you delete it and regenerate it. Of course
if you have things under source code control. (how could you not?) you
should be able to merge in your own changes quite painlessly...
