Hi everyone,
After days and days of looking for a solution I decided to post my question in this forum.
I have a very simple Ecore file for a Filesystem and I have created a diagram using GMF, but I am having a problem with the generated diagram's XML.
The problem is that the XML nodes inside de diagram are being generated using the EReference "name" attribute instead of the "EType" attribute.
E.G. I'd like to change <files> to <File>; and <folders> to <Folder> in the following example.
Ecore:
File
name: EType EString
Folder
name: EType EString
folders: EType Folder
files: EType File
Filesytem
folders: EType Folder, containment: true
files: EType File, containment: true
Diagram:
Filesystem:
folders: Folder1,Folder2
files: File1
Folder:
name: Folder1
folders: Folder2
files: File1
Folder:
name: Folder2
folders: -
files: -
File:
name: File1
Diagram's XML
<com.example.filesystem:Filesystem xmi:id="_VFkHMLCAEeOdou7_dXIPjg">
<folders xmi:type="com.example.filesystem:Folder" xmi:id="_WWim4LCAEeOdou7_dXIPjg" name="Folder1" folders="_XGFNcLCAEeOdou7_dXIPjg" files="_Vt-LALCAEeOdou7_dXIPjg"/>
<folders xmi:type="com.example.filesystem:Folder" xmi:id="_XGFNcLCAEeOdou7_dXIPjg" name="Folder2"/>
<files xmi:type="com.example.filesystem:File" xmi:id="_Vt-LALCAEeOdou7_dXIPjg" name="File1"/>
</com.example.filesystem:Filesystem>
Expected diagram's XML
<com.example.filesystem:Filesystem xmi:id="_VFkHMLCAEeOdou7_dXIPjg">
<Folder xmi:type="com.example.filesystem:Folder" xmi:id="_WWim4LCAEeOdou7_dXIPjg" name="Folder1" folders="_XGFNcLCAEeOdou7_dXIPjg" files="_Vt-LALCAEeOdou7_dXIPjg"/>
<Folder xmi:type="com.example.filesystem:Folder" xmi:id="_XGFNcLCAEeOdou7_dXIPjg" name="Folder2"/>
<File xmi:type="com.example.filesystem:File" xmi:id="_Vt-LALCAEeOdou7_dXIPjg" name="File1"/>
</com.example.filesystem:Filesystem>
Is there any way to do it but not having to change the references name attributes?
Thank you,
Agustin

Agustin,
Nested elements always use feature names, not type names. You might
want to look at
http://ed-merks.blogspot.ca/2007/12/winters-icy-grip.html if you are
hung up on the serialization format.
