Obtain EditPart from View model od domain model element [message #480482]

Hello,

I couldn't find answer nowhere in documentation, so I must post this
(probably trivial) question here:

Can I and how can I obtain EditPart if I have just instance element of my
domain model or its View? If this is possible, it is probably done using
some methods that uses reflection, but couldn't find them.

Thanks for your time and help,

Yegor Manko

Hi Yegor,

As there is neither direct reference from domain model to view nor from view to edit part you should use a cross referencer.
Have a look at http://my.safaribooksonline.com/9780321331885/ch16lev1sec3 and
http://help.eclipse.org/ganymede/topic/org.eclipse.gmf.doc/r eference/api/runtime/org/eclipse/gmf/runtime/emf/core/util/C rossReferenceAdapter.html.

Regards,

Mariot

Thank you for your response.

Just small follow-up:

Do I need to subclass this class CrossReferenceAdapter, reimplement some
of its methods to react to changes and attach it to each view? Like:

view.eAdapters().add(new XXXCrossReferenceAdapter())

Or you thought of some other way of utilizing this class?

Thank you,
Yegor Manko
