Load a diagram in editor from its name [message #142548]

Hi, everybody

Is it possible with GMF to retrieve and load (open in editor) a diagram
only from its name? I tried it with createNewDiagramFile of EditorUtil and
the openDiagram method but a new diagram is created, what is logic.
So, I think if I can retrieve the diagram file (IFile) from a diagram
name, I could open the diagram with its contents.

Does someone can help me, please?

Thank you.

I think you're looking for IDE.openEditor(...). See Javadoc here:

reference/api/org/eclipse/ui/ide/IDE.html

Cheers,
