Getting the contents of the current EditPartViewer [message #68526]

Hi,

I want to provide an action on the workbench toolbar like is done with
the increment and decrement actions in the Logic example.

I'm looking at the IncrementDecrementAction class in the Logic
example where the currently selected editpart is retrieved by using
getSelectedObjects(). Instead I want to get the contents (the
top-most EditPart) of the current EditPartViewer. My goal is to
provide a serialisation function for serialising my model to XML.

Thanks,
Murray

Can you just give your Action the EditPartViewer in its contructor?
If not, you can call editpart.getRoot().getViewer()

In tomorrows build, you will be able to call just editpart.getViewer().
