How to get the underlying XML from a palette tool [message #212405]

Hello,

I would like to get the underlying XMI file of a diagram from a palette
tool. In the PropertyCheckerDialog I would like to get the XMI file and
send it to a converter. Could somebody point me to a tutorial which
explains how to get it?

AlgebraicPetriNetsPaletteFactory :
ToolEntry entry = new ToolEntry(AlgebraicPetriNets.diag...
AlgebraicPetriNets.diagr...., null, null, CheckerTool.class) {};

CheckerTool;
public class CheckerTool extends AbstractTool {
.....
public void activate(){
super.activate();

PropertyCheckerDialog dialog = new
PropertyCheckerDialog(PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getDisplay() .getActiveShell());
dialog.open();

setState(STATE_TERMINAL);
handleFinished();
}
....
}

Many Thanks
Regards
Steve

Hello Steve,

You can get currently active editor from the workbench, get appropriate editorInput
from it and use that to locate file or use Eclipse selection.
