persisted edges [message #184454]

Hello,

I am updating the underlying emf model to update the diagram.While doing
so, Some of the edges which i newly added are not getting persisted. So,
when the diagram is updated, some edges are persisted and some are
transient. If i do some modification in the diagram and save the diagram,
transient edges are becoming persited edges.

Could any one explain why is this?

Hello Asha,

Transient edges (and Nodes) will be created by automatic diagram updating
code. As a result, these elements will not be stored into the diagram file
but will be re-created on next diagram editor openning. If you need to persist
existing edges you can call Diagram.persistEdges()
