Hi @all,

I've got some problems with my generation of a graphical editor.
I'm stuck in generating the Diagram Gen Model file (*.gmfgen). I allways
get the error:

>>java.lang.IllegalStateException: Can't find genFeature for feature
'allNodes' in class SequenceType
at
>> org.eclipse.gmf.internal.bridge.genmodel.GenModelMatcher.fin dGenFeature(GenModelMatcher.java:102)

>> org.eclipse.gmf.internal.codegen.popup.actions.TransformToGe nModel$1.run(TransformToGenModel.java:159)
at org.eclipse.core.internal.jobs.Worker.run(Worker.java:58)

The class SequenceType contains both Getter and Setter for 'AllNodes' and
the generated SequenceTypeImpl has the entry:

>> /**
>> * The cached value of the '{@link #getAllNodes() <em>All Nodes</em>}'
containment reference.
>> * <!-- begin-user-doc -->
>> * <!-- end-user-doc -->
>> * @see #getAllNodes()
>> * @generated
>> * @ordered
>> */
>> protected NodeTYPE allNodes = null;

Could you please help me?
Is there a way to get some more Information what the error is about?
What is meant with 'genFeature' for feature AllNodes?

All hints, tips, and other help is very much appreciated

Hi again,

I just realized, that I posted my question too early! I solved the problem
myself.

Here is the aswer:
The *.genmodel looked identical to the *.ecore-file, but it wasn't. I
looked at the *.genmodel-file with a text-editor and saw that it was out
of sync(the genFeature AllNodes did not exist).
I reloaded the genmodel-file from the ecore and it worked perfectly.

Next time, I promise, I'll look twice before I post my questions.

Shame on me and my apoligies

This has happened for me many times, and the reason was always that
the genmodel was out of sync with the ecore model. In addition, the
genmodel in memory was out of sync with the file, so even though I saw
the "missing" feature, it wasn't in the file that the gmfgen generator
read.

The solution was to delete genmodel and recreate it using the wizard.
