I don't know if I understood your question but I try to give an answer. I think that what you want is to do some action when a new node is created. Go to the XXX.diagram.edit.parts and then to the XXXEditPart.java. There add code like this:

@Override
  protected void handleNotificationEvent(Notification notification) {
  super.handleNotificationEvent(notification);
  if (notification.getNotifier() instanceof XXX) {
			//your code
  }
}

Hi,

As I observe that in the java file xxxEditPart.java, there is a line in the createDefaultEditPolicies() method shown below

installEditPolicy(EditPolicyRoles.OPEN_ROLE, new SubclassOfOpenEditPolicy());

Anyone have the idea on how to install SubclassOfOpenEditPolicy, so that its getOpenCommand() can be accessed.

Thanks,
Vinay
