Invalid Connection reference when compartments are used [message #183394]

Hello All,

In my gmfmap model, for the link mapping (connections) I have specified
source and target features as references to two of my domain objects.

However one of them has Compartment Mapping done in the gmfmap model.

In the diagram, now I cannot create a connection between these two
objects. For the editpart within the compartment, the connection arrow
shows "not allowed".

If I remove the compartment mapping, the source and target references are
properly understood by GMF and the connections can be drawn.

Since I need the compartments, is there anything separate that I need to
do to allow a connection to be anchored to my object? Do I need to install
some policy for my compartment?

Try modifying layout node having compartment in .gmfgraph model. Looks like
you are not able to point to the node itself wile drawing the connection
- you are always pointing to the compartment.. I think you need some "free
space" above or below this compartment - this space will belong to the node
itself, so you will be able to point to it while drawing the connetion.
