Hi,

my question is how I can create a new Element e.g. Comment element. I found a snippet where I copy an already exisitng ManagedElement. Also I capture the UMLDiagrammAction2 and then override the the run method.

Snippet for copying an exisitng NamedElement:
NamedElement ne = ((NamedElement)element); ne.getNearestPackage().getPackagedElements().add((Packageabl eElement) EcoreUtil.copy(element));

But I need to create a complete new Element (Comment).

How it os possible?

Thanks for help

Sepp,

This is no different from creating other objects in EMF, so probably
your question is more about EMF than about UML2 (or UML2Tools).

You need to use the UMLFactory, i.e.,
Comment newComment = UMLFactory.eINSTANCE.createComment();

Kind regards,

Koen
