Compartment question [message #235651]

Greetings,
In my ecore model I have two elements on the same level. In other words,
both elements (A and B) have same parent.
In editor, object A must contain the object B. I created a compartment in
the node A for node B (in gmfgraph and gmfmap), but it simply not working.
Can I do it somehow? Any help is more then welcome.

Thanks.

Hello Sinisa,

Currently to visualize B as a child element of A you have to create derived
feature in class A referencing B, re-generate code with EMF, implement this
feature in accordance and use it as containment one in NodeMapping for node
B.

Hi Alex,
Thanks for answer and for your time. I very appreciate that.
In the meantime, I was already tried this and its work :D !
But, there is one problem. This approach also changes my output model
(domain) file (node A is now really parent of node B).
Structure of the model file is specified by WfMC specification and I can't
change it.

Is there another way to present node B as a child of the node A (on
diagram), and that the output model remains unchanged.

Thanks & regards
Sinisa

Only by modifying GMF-generated code - not so easy way...

Thanks Alex,
Unfortunately, this is the only way for me.
I will try what you say, and if I made some progress, I will share them
with you.
If you can suggest me on which classes I must pay attention, I would be
very grateful.

Thanks & regards,
Sinisa.

Hello Sinisa,

???CreateCommand generated for child element (B).
To simplify this process you have to create NodeMapping for B below A, ignore
validation errors and generate code, then modify it.
