Creating link without reference in the root element of domain model [message #211383]

Hi all!

I need to create a link without reference in the root element of domain
model. In this case link is the same element as others (but behaves as
connection). All other elements can have a list of references to this
link. Link has "to" property - name of target element. Generated xml must
look like:
<process>
<node name="name">
<transition to="page" name="next"></transition>
</node>
<node name="page">
</node>
</process>
How can I do this with GMF?

Hello Alexandr,

I suggest you to create "derived" property in transition element pointing
to the "to" node in EMF model. As a result transition will be just a simple
element-based link in terms of GMF and you can use any GMF examples as a
prototype of your diagram.
