I have a large model and many of the classes are referenced as containment or association.
When I generate the EDIT code not all references appear in the notification.
Because of that the tree in the editor does not refresh when a reference to association is changed. Only contained references are refresh.

For example: one of the classes generated the following which is only the contained refernces

public void notifyChanged(Notification notification) {
updateChildren(notification);

switch (notification.getFeatureID(InterfaceEntity.class)) {
case FSDModelPackage.INTERFACE_ENTITY__INTERFACE_TYPE:
case FSDModelPackage.INTERFACE_ENTITY__RELATED_MAPPPER_NAMES:
fireNotifyChanged(new ViewerNotification(notification, notification.getNotifier(), false, true));
return;
case FSDModelPackage.INTERFACE_ENTITY__INTERFACE_MESSAGE_MAPPER:
case FSDModelPackage.INTERFACE_ENTITY__INTERFACE_SERVICE_CALLS:
fireNotifyChanged(new ViewerNotification(notification, notification.getNotifier(), true, false));
return;
}
super.notifyChanged(notification);
}


I would expect it to generate all the references like this:
@Override
public void notifyChanged(Notification notification) {
updateChildren(notification);

switch (notification.getFeatureID(InterfaceEntity.class)) {
case FSDModelPackage.INTERFACE_ENTITY__INTERFACE_TYPE:
case FSDModelPackage.INTERFACE_ENTITY__RELATED_MAPPPER_NAMES:
fireNotifyChanged(new ViewerNotification(notification, notification.getNotifier(), false, true));
return;
case FSDModelPackage.INTERFACE_ENTITY__INTERFACE_MESSAGE_MAPPER:
case FSDModelPackage.INTERFACE_ENTITY__INTERFACE_SERVICE_CALLS:
case FSDModelPackage.INTERFACE_ENTITY__ICD:
case FSDModelPackage.INTERFACE_ENTITY__INTERFACE_MESSAGE:
case FSDModelPackage.INTERFACE_ENTITY__OPERATION:
fireNotifyChanged(new ViewerNotification(notification, notification.getNotifier(), true, false));
return;
}
super.notifyChanged(notification);
}

How can I control this list to make sure ALL references are in it?

I know I can change the notify property in the genmodel but that will add the reference to the label update and not the viewer update list.
I want to have the viewer content change.

That depends on what you've set for the properties of the corresponding
GenFeatures...

Set the Notify property of each GenFeature to true.

Since my model is huge and there is a lot of manual work, I'll like to make it programmatic.
I know how to open the genmodel as a resource and get to the genPackage.
How do I get from the gen package to notify element in the edit section?

I tested you Notify change and it works great.


Thanks
Yigal

GenPackages contains GenClassifiers, some of which are GenClasses that
contain GenFeatures. This containment structure should be apparent
looking at the tree view in the Generator.
