Hi,

I would like to do something similar as in the BPMN editor but I can't get
it.

I have two figures. Figure "Step" and figure "Activity". The figure "Step"
is a compartment for the figure "Activity".

In the ecore model the relation between "Step" and "Activity" is that
"StepImplementation" is an aggregation of "Step" and "StepImplementation"
is the generalisation of "Activity".

<eClassifiers xsi:type="ecore:EClass" name="Step">
<eStructuralFeatures xsi:type="ecore:EAttribute"
name="autoAbortBehaviour" eType="#//AutoAbortBehaviour"/>
<eStructuralFeatures xsi:type="ecore:EAttribute"
name="autoCancelBehaviour" eType="#//AutoCancelBehaviour"/>
<eStructuralFeatures xsi:type="ecore:EAttribute" name="name"
lowerBound="1" eType="ecore:EDataType
http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore#//EString"
iD="true"/>
<eStructuralFeatures xsi:type="ecore:EAttribute" name="isCompensation"
eType="ecore:EDataType http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore#//EBoolean"/>
<eStructuralFeatures xsi:type="ecore:EAttribute" name="type"
eType="#//StepType"/>
<eStructuralFeatures xsi:type="ecore:EReference" name="parameter"
upperBound="-1"
eType="#//StaticParameter" containment="true"/>
<eStructuralFeatures xsi:type="ecore:EReference" name="implementation"
upperBound="-1"
eType="#//StepImplementation" containment="true"/>
</eClassifiers>
<eClassifiers xsi:type="ecore:EClass" name="StepImplementation">
<eStructuralFeatures xsi:type="ecore:EReference" name="cardinality"
eType="#//StepCardinality"
containment="true"/>
</eClassifiers>
<eClassifiers xsi:type="ecore:EClass" name="Activity"
eSuperTypes="#//StepImplementation">
<eStructuralFeatures xsi:type="ecore:EAttribute" name="name"
eType="ecore:EDataType http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore#//EString"/>
<eStructuralFeatures xsi:type="ecore:EAttribute" name="function"
eType="ecore:EDataType http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore#//EString"/>
<eStructuralFeatures xsi:type="ecore:EAttribute" name="version"
eType="ecore:EDataType http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore#//EInt"/>
</eClassifiers>
<eClassifiers xsi:type="ecore:EClass" name="Flow"
eSuperTypes="#//StepImplementation">
<eStructuralFeatures xsi:type="ecore:EAttribute" name="name"
eType="ecore:EDataType http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore#//EString"/>
<eStructuralFeatures xsi:type="ecore:EAttribute" name="version"
eType="ecore:EDataType http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore#//EInt"/>
</eClassifiers>

In my GMF palette I have a Step, Activity and Flow creation tool. If I
create a Step I can put an Activity or a Flow implementation in the Step
compartment.

What I know want is a creation tool say StepActivity which creates
direcety a Step with the Activity implementation in the compartment. So I
have to define a CreateCommand which creates a Step and puts automatically
an Activity inside before desplaying...

How can I achieve this?

The difference to the BPMN editor is that it is not an Enumeration put an
aggregation.

Would be great if anyone could help me!

Thanks a lot

Marsha

Hi Marsha,

I'm not sure we can help you well. You should address the GMF newsgroup
for such questions. I am adding it in CC so that others can help.

I'll take a crack at it anyway:

you should create a Tool (implementing CreationTool I think) and
override the getCommnand method to make it do whatever you want it to do.

Then add it in the palette using the PaletteFactory implementation that
was created for your diagram.

Hope this helps.

Hi Antoine,

Thanks for your reply. I already posted the question in the GMF newsgroup,
unfortunately without sucess.

I'm taking the BPMN editor as example, so that is the reason why I thought
that someone may help me.

I'll try your proposition.

Greets,

Marsha
