Hi,

I want to Embed the XText editor in the Eclipse BPMN Editor. This needs to be embedded on the labels of the connections in the BPMN Editor. Hence need the content assists feature etc of the XText editor too.

Is it possible to achieve this.

Thanks a lot for the help!
Best Regards,
Nidhi

Hard to say without knowing the implementation of the BPMN editor. In any case you likely need to customize its source. The Yakindu project does this in their statechart diagrams, and Yakindu is GMF based (I guess BPMN also).

Anyway, this will require some effort to dig into it.

You could also have a look at the EmbeddedEditorBuilder
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=363752
Unfortunately, it is still a bit work in progress, but it should already
be useful.
