How can I use self-defined model as EMF generated editors' input? How to handle the resource synchro [message #220350]

Hi,

I managed to build a multi-page editor following TopicMap example. Now I
need to use self-defined model (not GMFResource) as my EMF generated
editor input, how can I achieve this?

Let me explain this by code, in TopicMap example, we use
editingDomain.getResourceSet() as the EMF editor's input:

selectionEditorPart.setInput(editingDomain.getResourceSet()) ;

And now, I want to use TopicMap class as the input of the EMF editor in
order to let TopicMap as the root element of each editor viewer:

TopicMap topicMap =
(TopicMap)editingDomain.getResourceSet().getResources().get( 0).getContents().get(0);
selectionEditorPart.setInput(topicMap);

So I did this. At the beginning, this worked fine. But after you saved
the resource, you could not do any modifications in EMF editor or any
modifications can not be recorded. I guess that the resource is updated
after save and is not synchronized with the input of each EMF editor,
but I don't know the best practice how to resolve this problem.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

Hello hexise,

In GMF-generated code XXXDocumentProvider class is responsible for saving/loading
models you can try debugging it to see what's happening on save.
