Moin, moin,

I'm trying to reorder the Tool Nodes in my Eugenia generated gmftool-file with ECore2GMF.eol. By now I have no idea how to access the child nodes and alter the order of the nodes. The tree example in the EpsilonBook shows a children attribute but these lines do not work:

var toolGroupObjects = GmfTool!ToolGroup.all.selectOne(r|r.title = 'Objects');
var fooNode = toolGroupObjects.children.all.selectOne(t|t.title = 'Foo');


How can I access the children of a specific node in the GmfTool tree ?

Hi Ralf,

I've scribbled the following ECore2GMF.eol that does this:

var objectsToolGroup = GmfTool!ToolGroup.all.selectOne(g|g.title="Objects");
objectsToolGroup.reorder(Sequence{"D", "C", "B", "A"});

operation GmfTool!ToolGroup reorder(order : Sequence(String)) {
var reordered = new Sequence;
for (item in order) {
var tool = self.tools.selectOne(t|t.title = item);
if (tool.isDefined()) {
reordered.add(tool);
}
}
self.tools = reordered;
}

for the following exemplar metamodel:

@namespace(uri="reordertools", prefix="reordertools")
package reordertools;

@gmf.diagram(foo="bar")
class Model {
val ModelElement[*] contents;
}

@gmf.node(label="name")
abstract class ModelElement {
attr String name;
}

class A extends ModelElement {

}

class B extends ModelElement {

}

class C extends ModelElement {

}

class D extends ModelElement {

}

If you need to inspect an existing model/built-in metamodel, Exeed and
the EPackage registry view can be very useful:

Cheers,
