I need to overwrite the behavior of getText() that is in EClassItemProvider. Since this is a provided class, what is the best way to do this?

Thanks
Alain

Alain,

You could subclass EcoreItemProviderAdapterFactory to create a subclass
of EClassItemProvider and use that factory in your ComposedAdapterFactory.

That is what I normally do indeed with our own elements.

But here I'm using a pre-defined control and I don't control the Adapter Factory and registering a factory under "org.eclipse.emf.edit.itemProviderAdapterFactories" either doesn't register more than one factory per uri or returns the first one found.

Thanks
Alain

Alain,

To which pre-defined control do you refer? Generally, if you're using
something provided by someone else, and they don't make it configurable,
you have to live with their design decisions...
