Hi, Alex,
As Cherie indicates, the correct newsgroup for EMFT questions is
eclipse.technology.emft (which I have copied).
Technically, a transaction is not required for saving or loading resources,
because transactions only protect the data contained by resources in the
resource set. So, one work-around for you would be to perform your
multi-resource save not in a transaction.
Of course, one does want to avoid the possibility of updates concurrent with
saving, which is the purpose of read-only transactions (in which save is
performed). So, possibly a better solution in the WorkspaceSynchronizer
would be to not do the runExclusive. I think this may not be necessary
because the default action always involves unloading the resource (custom
sync delegates may do more) and the synchronizer must assume that the
resource change may have been triggered within a transaction.
Please raise a bug, and I will investigate further.
Thanks!
