I want to make a workflow designer by GMF,now the question is
(1)I want to get the *.XPDL structure as follows:
<package>
<processes>
<process1/>
<nodes>
<node1/>
<node2/>
</nodes>
<connections>
<connection1/>
<connection2/>
</connections>
<process2/>
</processes>
<package>
but when I use GMF to generate the model,edit and digram three
plugins(my model.ecore is complete generated by
<TC-1025_schema_10_xpdl.xsd>),
I could only get he *.XPDL structure as follows:
<package>
<process1/>
<node1/>
<node2/>
<connection1/>
<connection2/>
<process2/>
<package>
because in GMF ,the model levels corresponds with the view levels ,there
are just two levels(process,node/connection) in view,
so the model can't get the pairs of <processes/> <nodes/><connections/>.
I have try the "http://wiki.eclipse.org/Diagram_Partitioning", but it's
not what I want.
I want just a editor to every process and store them to one Package.XPDL
(2)In GMF,the model and view are separated to two XML files, but in
workflow ,I just want a *.XPDL to store them.
I have try to use "Same File For Diagram And Model" in gmfgen, but it's
just simply combine the two XML files(like "<package/><<notation/>".
And in workflow Schema, the XML should combine the view info into model info
(like "
<package>
<processes>
<process1/>
<nodes>
<node1 Xcoordinate="13" Ycoordinate="34"/>
<node2/>
</nodes>
<connections>
<connection1/>
<connection2/>
</connections>
<process2/>
</processes>
<package>
")

I sorry I'm not particularly aware of the " If you whant to use
arbitrary element from the underlying resource (not
a root one) as a diagram root element then you can try using "Initialize
.. diagram" popup menu action on exising *.XPDL file."
I only have these files:
TC-1025_schema_10_xpdl.xsd
my.ecore
my.genmodel
my.gmfgraph
my.gmftool
my.gmfmap
my.gmfgen
and after debug, GMF create a model file and a view file , I want to
combine the two files into one *.XPDL file ,
but I haven't done it.
So you says using "Initialize .. diagram" popup menu action on exising
*.XPDL file."
which type of editor is used to open the exising *.XPDL file" and find
the "Initialize .. diagram" popup menu?

Thank you ,finally I decide using GEF to make this workflow designers, I
have research some workflow designers,like TIBCO Studio and Java
Workflow Tooling Project in www.eclipse.org, they all choose gef+emf
instead of GMF ,maybe GMF have some problem with the WFMC XPDL Schema,
like how to construct the pairs of tags in the persistence file which
are hidden in GMF Diagram(e.g.<processes></processes>).
