Initializing empty diagrams on a shared model [message #120232]

Wed, 18 April 2007 10:04

Eclipse User

Hello,

I'm using Initialize diagram X on a shared emf model to create multiple
views of the same model. However, even when I have set syncronized
to be false, the newly created diagrams show all the elements that already
exist
in the model. However, I really want to launch a blank diagram
which I can add new elements to.

Is there anyway to make this happen?

Thanks,

Andy

Make sure that ???RootEditPart#createDefaultEditPolicies() doesn't
install a ???CannonicalEditPolicy.

if there is code like:
installEditPolicy(EditPolicyRoles.CANONICAL_ROLE, new
???CanonicalEditPolicy());
the diagram is still syncronized.

setting syncronized to false should normaly remove this code after
regenerating.

Hello ase,

Comment out "new DiagramContentsInitializer().initDiagramContents(..)" in
???NewDiagramFileWizard.

Thanks Alex,

This seems a very important thing to be able to control via the gmfgen
parameters
as I would have thought by default most shared view implementations would
not
want to show the existing elements.

Can it be added as a feature request?

Thanks, but this doesn't solve the problem of the elements that are shared
with other views
of the same domain model - they still get added.

I think Alex's email is right in that you have to remove some code, but it
does feel like my
scenario is a common one to want to control via the gmfgen model.

Hi Alex,
there's no DiagramContentsInitializer or anything similar in my gmf
project. Is the class/method obsolete? I'm working with GMF 2.0M6

Try searching for
initDiagramContents

in your .diagram files.

If it's been addressed a more sensible way, then great, but I doubt it.

Hello Andreas,

> there's no DiagramContentsInitializer or anything similar in my gmf
This class should be generated only for non-synchronized diagrams. Do you
have synchronized diagram?

hi alex,
thats it. i've generated a syncronized diagram.
but good to know. i'm trying to implement different actions, that makes
it possible to initialize filled or empty diagrams. the
DiagramContentsInitializer is exactly what i need for this approach.
