Hi,
I´m quite lost how to get GEF integrated in a RCP standalone-Application.
How can I show e.g. a GraphicalEditor via Actions (to hook it in the menue bar, or to open as a result of some button
click)?
Thanks for any hints in advance,
Georg

Hi Gerhard,
what you proposed would be the "direct" way which I hoped I could avoid.
What I hoped I could do is to just adapt my GEF Editor, as is described here
http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-GEF-EMF/gef-emf.html (see Shapes Example goes RCP! near the end),
and open this editor in RCP. I succeeded opening the Editor via actions in rcp, but still have
the class-cast-problem in setEditorInput() described in the article.
Somehow I just fail to understand how to implement the proposed solution ... anyone can give me a hint?
- I´m Using Eclipse 3.2.2

Hi ,
We are using GEF in an RCP app.
We open our editor by doubel clicking on a tree view element representing
the
diagram to be opened.:
//objroot is our root model object
IEditorInput iei = new EditorInput(objRoot);
try {
part.getSite().getWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage().openEdit or(iei,
"org.pathwayeditor.mapEditor");
}catch (Exception e){
MessageDialog.openError(part.getSite().getShell(), " Map opening
error",
new String (" The map could not be opened: \n " + e.getMessage()));
}
and we need to include the editor contribution in the plugin.xml
