Extending the Deletion of an Element [message #104693]

I want to add some behavior to the deletion of some of my model elements.
Do you have any suggestions on how to do this?

Thanks for the response! That confirms that I am headed down the right
path. However, I can't get the EditHelpAdvise class to execute. Here is my
extension xml. Am I missing something?

<metamodelType
id="net.taylor.uml2.classdiagram.Package_79"
kind="org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.emf.type.core.IHintedType"
eclass="Package"
edithelper="net.taylor.uml2.classdiagram.edit.helpers.PackageEditHelper ">
<param name="semanticHint" value="79"/>
</metamodelType>
<specializationType
id="net.taylor.uml2.classdiagram.Package_79a"
name="Package"
kind="org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.emf.type.core.IHintedType"
edithelperadvice=" net.taylor.uml2.classdiagram.edit.helpers.PackageEditHelperA dvice ">
<specializes id="net.taylor.uml2.classdiagram.Package_79"/>
<param name="semanticHint" value="79"/>
</specializationType>

Are you customizing the deletion of a specialization type or a metamodel
type? You have to put your advice binding inside the metamodel
declaration. If you're using a specialization type, are you passing it to
the creation tool accordingly?

Ok. That makes sense. I tried this but it doesn't seem to work.

<metamodel nsURI="http://www.eclipse.org/uml2/2.0.0/UML">
<metamodelType
id="net.taylor.uml2.classdiagram.Package_79"
kind="org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.emf.type.core.IHintedType"
eclass="Package"
edithelper="net.taylor.uml2.classdiagram.edit.helpers.PackageEditHelper ">
<param name="semanticHint" value="79"/>
</metamodelType>
<adviceBinding
id=" net.taylor.uml2.classdiagram.edit.helpers.PackageEditHelperA dvice "
typeId="net.taylor.uml2.classdiagram.Package_79"
class=" net.taylor.uml2.classdiagram.edit.helpers.PackageEditHelperA dvice "
inheritance="all">
</adviceBinding>
</metamodel>

<advice
ref="org.eclipse.gmf.examples.library.diagram.adviceBinding2 "></advice>

the adding this extension

<metamodel
nsURI="http:///org/eclipse/gmf/examples/library.ecore">
<adviceBinding
class=" org.eclipse.gmf.examples.library.diagram.edit.helpers.MyAdvi ce "
id="org.eclipse.gmf.examples.library.diagram.adviceBinding2 "
inheritance="none"
typeId="*">
