Hi,

I have a requirement where in, I would like to provide an option of
saving an element added to an editor be saved in a different file. Can
this be done?

What I am trying to say is something like this:

file1.xml
<root>
<name id='1'>1</name>
<name id='2'>2</name>
</root>

file2.xml
<root ref='file1.xml'>
<name ref='1'/>
<name ref='2'/>
</root>

The requirement is I have these elements created in the first file
file1.xml. when creating the link elements I would like to have them to be
created in another file. How can I implement this?

Please help!!!

Thanks & Regards
Balraj

Hello Balraj,

Can you use shortcutting functionality to separate one part of the model
from another? see http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/GMF_GenModel_Hints#Diagram _group,
"Contains Shortcuts To" and "Shortcuts Provided For" properties.
