HI,

I have an example where I have 3 classes and 2 edges. Then I want to delete one of the classes. In the class diagram the edge disappears but in the tree editor the edge still exists, except now either its source or target is empty. How can I make it so that when I delete a node it deletes all the edge classes that are attached to it?

I essentially want to make it so that an edge class can exist iff and only if src.exists() and tgt.exists == true.

Hello

What do you mean by "in the tree editor the edge still exists" ?
Do you mean a representation of type Tree?

From what I understand, it seems that you edge represents an element still existing as a semantic element. I guess you have a "Element Based Edge" in your odesign
If you want to delete this semantic element you have to do it in your delete tool. (https://www.eclipse.org/sirius/doc/specifier/diagrams/Diagrams.html#tools_reference)
For example you can have a change context operation that will call a java service to delete any elements you want (https://www.eclipse.org/sirius/doc/specifier/general/Model_Operations.html#goto and https://www.eclipse.org/sirius/doc/specifier/general/Writing_Queries.html#service_methods)

I hope this helps
