How to programmatically create temporary Papyrus diagrams? [message #1774172]

I would like to programmatically create and populate temporary Papyrus-diagrams, e.g. diagrams that are not added to any .notation resource.

Actually I would like to avoid adding a new diagram to the content list for the diagram resource returned by the NotationUtils.getNotationResourceForDiagram()-method.
But any attempt to do that fails in a ServiceNotFoundException.

Is it possible to create Papyrus diagrams without adding it to a resource and if so, could someone give me a hint on how to do that.

I would like to achieve something like the "browse-diagram" capabilities available in some other modeling tools.

Hi Thomas,

Many parts of the diagrams or tooling rely on the current resource set to find services. So if the current diagram is not located in any resource, it doesn't have access to the ResourceSet/ModelSet, and services can't be found.

One option could be to add the diagrams to a resource that won't be saved (e.g. read-only), but is still known to the model set, so services can't still be retrieve.

HTH,
Camille

Thank you Camille for a very quick answer.

I will try your suggestion and experiment with adding the diagram to another resource that will not be saved.
