hi everyone,

i have a problem now,it likes this:

a model A has a containment reference B , and B mustn't be removed or changed, B is created in the Aimpl constructor as like below:


protected EList<B> bs;

....

@generated NOT
Aimpl()
{
super();
getBs.add(new Bimpl());
....
}

as bs mustn't be removed or changed,so i want to hide it in the editor,that means when i click A, the children Bs will be hided not displayed as child nodes of A.

i try to override the AItemProvider's getChildren method,just like below:

Collection<?> getChildren(Object object)
{
Collection<?> collection = super.getChildren(object);

/// traversal collection,if the element in collection is
/// instance of B, remove it...

return collection;
}

but it seems doesn't work,i dont know how to do...

i need your help,thanks

best regards
wang xy

That's already sounding bad. I suppose you have this marked as
transient and derived.

Of course you're changing it here...

You can do this via the GenFeature property in the GenModel; you'd
likely want to turn off notification, children, and child creation.
