I'm writing a modular editor with the GMF where different plugins can add
functionality to the same editor. When a plugin adds something to the
palette, it needs to add an EditPolicy as well so that the plugin can
contribute the correct commands for the edition. I was using
EditPart.installEditPolicy() to add another policy with SEMANTIC_ROLE, but I
realize now that that erases the existing policy with the same key. Is there
a way to have multiple policies with the same key, or is there currently a
way to add functionality to an existing policy?
Thanks,
Liam Morley

I'm not sure if I follow- I want to be able to apply both policies to the
same role simultaneously. Are you saying to have one policy per role, but
have my policy function as a strategy? I think what you're saying is that
this functionality does not exist natively in the GEF, but I can implement
it on my own. Is that true?

Hi,
Each existing Role with EditPolicy known about some Request, your Role
too. Now the same Role want capture difference Request, so it is a
choice that appling a strategy pattern for the special EditPolicy.

You should ask on the GMF newsgroup about the best way to do this. There's
only one editpolicy per role. But you can install several different
editpolicies that can handle the same request type.
