Hello,

I'm Daniele. I would change property of a class specified in my model of
Ecore from the graphic editor generated. The idea is add a new action in
the menu clicking on a graphical item. That is to say, i want right-click
on a item and choose an action that I added with an extention point. That
action I added will change property of that object.

But there is a problem. For example, let me modify the object "box"
specified in my ecore.
If I add an extention poin to add a new submenu in the right-click menu,
in the class that specify the action I get the boxEditPart. But property
and method are specified in the boxImpl. How can i reach the impl from
the editpart? how they are related??

hope to explained quite well..

many thanks

Hi,

i think the edit parts have a "public EObject resolveSemanticElement()"
Method. I guess this is what you are looking for

i tried but it doesn't work...
i tried to do so:

( (boxImpl) selectedObj.resolveSemanticElement() ) . getName()

where selectedObj is the EditPart selected in the graphic editor.

but nothing..... it doesn't give any error, but it dosn't work, it dosn't
give me the name.

maybe i wrong in take the selected item.. ?!

if i rightclick on an element, and choose an action, in the class that
implements that action, how can I reach the selected item?
