Hi!

If you are talking about marking your nodes with red signs when there is
something wrong with it, then you can make use of validation.

The document
http://www.sts.tu-harburg.de/pw-and-m-theses/2006/dorai06.pd f
seems to provide the necessary infos at
4.1 EMFT Validation

Make sure to add the following plug-in to your run configuration (it does
not seem to get added automatically):
gmf org.eclipse.emf.validation.ui

After that, validation should be available in your menu at
"Diagram->Validate".

Regards, Peter

Hello,
it seems I encountered another problem (I have been reading the PDF you
linked before):
the audit problems are displayed on the diagram but I cannot get them into
the problem view. However it seems to be automatically done in the PDF
example. Could you please tell me if there is any additional step to
perform here?

Note : I verified the providers priority and most of the plugin extension
points and it looks to be identical to the PDF ones. Actually the main
difference I have found is the constraint type, as I do not use OCL but
java ones. May it be a bug of the code generation due to java constraint
usage?

Thx in advance, best regards,
R. Mechali

I just tried it with constraints using Java, and I can see the errors in
my Problems-view after validation (GMF 2.1).

Not sure what could be wrong with configuration, since marking the wrong
nodes seems to work, so your validation has to be ok...

Hello again,
could you tell me if you use the constraints in live mode or not? (this
may help me to reduce the investigation field).
Thanks for your answer, best regards,

It works with and without Live Mode.

So your Problems-View continues to say "0 items" even though there are
nodes marked with red x-signs in the diagram?

Yes, actually it does not fill with the error and warning items of the
diagram (to confirm this information I have also replaced my custom
validation action by the generated one). May it come from a bad gmfgen
configuration?
Anyway, thanks for your help.

I just tried it as RCP-application, and here it does not seem to work.

Is this what you're trying?

Yes this is what I am trying. Thank you a lot for the information it will
really help the project advancement! Do you know if this is an abnormal
behavior?
Thank you a lot, best regards,

I'm quite unexperienced with GMF and Eclipse, so it's just trial&error for
me too...

Here's another (unresolved) thread
http://www.eclipse.org/newsportal/article.php?id=18409&g roup=eclipse.modeling.gmf
addressing the same issue.

I try to continue discussion there, maybe someone else can give us a
hand...
