Model change validation [message #1695779]

I am using Sirius with an Xtext DSL. In the event of changes to the semantic model, I need to be able to manually validate the change and, if necessary add my own subsequent changes to the model.

E.g. if the datatype of an attribute in my class diagram is set or changed (see attached picture), I need to make sure the containing package is aware of the datatype or, if not, manually imports it.

How can I access these changes programmatically and perform my validations/additions?

regards,

Bernhard

when generating the model you also generate your.project.model.edit. In this project you can find the classes that are used for the properties tab. If you change a method dont forget to replace @generated with "@generated NOT", otherwise it gets replaced on a new generation.

Hi Bernhard,

If you want to react to model changes to do other model changes, you can
use a precommit listener [1] and if the changes doesn't comply to your
validation rules you can throw a RollbackException to have changes undone.
