DropObjectsRequest and Command to DnD from a View to diagram editor [message #224840]

Hi,

I have a GMF editor. In my
DiagramDocumentEditor.initializeGraphicalViewer method, I have
configured a DropTargetListener :

getDiagramGraphicalViewer().addDropTargetListener(
new TransfoProjectDropTargetListener(
getDiagramGraphicalViewer()
)
);

with LocalTransfer. I have overrided
DropTargetListener.createTargetRequest method to create a
DropObjectsRequest object with object being dropped :

protected Request createTargetRequest() {
DropObjectsRequest request = new DropObjectsRequest();
request.setObjects(getObjectsBeingDropped());
request.setAllowedDetail(getCurrentEvent().operations);
return request;
}

In the editpolicy corresponding to my GMF diagram I have overrided
DiagramDragDropEditPolicy.getDropObjectsCommand but which Command can I
create to GMF Runtime to add my dropped object in editingdomain et
corresponding view in the GMF diagram editor?
The DiagramDragDropEditPolicy.createViewsAndArrangeCommand don't change
anything.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Alex,

Now I can add view corresponding to my EObject in my diagram but my
EObject is not added to my domain model resource. I use same code of
almost all DnD example :

For example in uml2tools example, the class
"org.eclipse.uml2.diagram.clazz.edit.parts.PackageEditPart" has a
DiagramDragDropEditPolicy with a custom getDropObjectsCommand() method
which return UMLCreateShortcutDecorationsCommand command behind a
AbstractTransactionalCommand.

Constructor of AbstractTransactionalCommand take a list of affected file
from getWorkspaceFiles(parentView), but this list contains only diagram
resource file not domain resource file.

How can I get domain resource file from a EditPart?

Thanks.

Yes I have seen MDAProjectEditPart.getHostObject() method also to get
EObject under my MDAProjectEditPart controler but both return null.
MDAProject being my root metamodel element.
Yet my domain resource file contain MDAProject object, I don't
understand why this method return null.

I can add view corresponding to my BusinessModel (EObject child of my
MDAProject) but when I try to save diagram a MessageDialog tell me that
saving could not be completed because of corresponding EObject of my
view missing in resource.

Thanks for your help.
