programatically set editpart selection [message #106554]

given an editpart how do you programatically set that as the selected
item on the diagram, having the diagram show the editpart as selected
and the properties view show the appropriate info?

Here's an example you could adapt:

private void selectViews(List views) {
IDiagramGraphicalViewer viewer = ((IDiagramWorkbenchPart) getWorkbenchPart())
.getDiagramGraphicalViewer();
if (viewer != null && views != null && !views.isEmpty()) {

List editparts = new ArrayList();
for (Iterator iter = views.iterator(); iter.hasNext();) {
Object view = iter.next();
if (view instanceof View) {
Object ep = viewer.getEditPartRegistry().get(view);
if (ep != null) {
editparts.add(ep);
}
}
}

if (!editparts.isEmpty()) {
viewer.setSelection(new StructuredSelection(editparts));
}
}
}
