Hide an attribute [message #551548]

I have the following problem I need to resolve:

I have an EClass myclass with a few Eattributes attA, attB, attC

each time I change the attribute then save the information is written to an XML file.

<myClass>

attA="dd" attB="dd" attC="p"

</myClass>

So the GMF engine is doing the writing to the XML file using introspection

so it will check if attA isSet then it will put it inside the xml file otherwise no and same thing for other attributes

I have a situation where I need not to put attA even if it is set. in other words I need to override the behavior of GMF engine for this attribute.

Is there a way to do that?

Thanks

Hi,

if I understand well, you can use Transient attribute. It will not be serialized.

The problem is that I want it to display in the propertySheet of the item and not in the XML File.
Using transient just remove it from both if I close and reopen the editor.
