Somehow I got the strange behaviour, that the Application is not generated.
Everything is generated, but the package with the application, the perspective and so on is missing.

How can I get the application to be generated?

I just want to ask if nobody knows why this could happen, or if somone already got the same problem.

I've tried it with 2 different Versions of GMF and on Helios and Galileo. But the application is not generated.

Hi,You provide no details about which actions lead to an unexpected
result. We could perhaps respond to your issue, with more information.
For a start, what is "the application", GMF will generate a diagram
plugin, which will either be RCP or a regular plugin. In case RCP is
selected when generating the .gmfgen file, there will be an IApplication
declaration in the plugin.

Ok, I have seen my mistake. I have at first generated an RCP so the application package was just a leftover. So I thought that there must always be this package.

Yes, with RCP, you will get the classes you mention. (Use the GMF
Dashboard, there is a checkbox for RCP, you'll find the dash board in
Window->Show View->General->GMF Dashboard).

if so, how do I run my Plug-In without the

There a few options. (BTW, this is not a GMF specific question, but
generic Eclipse platform stuff).

- Right-click-> Run AS-> Eclipse App (This will launch a new eclipse,
with the target platform plugins + your plugin included, you will be
able to File->New and find your model diagram there).

- Create a simple "Hello world" RCP app, open de plugin definition
(MANIFEST.MF or Plugin.xml). Run the RCP app from the Plugin Overview
Tab. This will create a launch configuration. Goto the newly created
launch config. (Menu->Run->Run/Debug Configurations). Select your RCP
app config, go to the plugins tab, Check mark your Diagram plugin.

Note: A GMF diagram plugin, will assume dependency on eclipse.ide.
Normally an RCP app, will not have this dependency, so click "Add
required plugins" to make sure all your dependencies are added to the
launch config.

- You can create a product, and add all the plugins you want.
