Using include params in parts' labels [message #820796]

Hi,
I've created a composite which can be included to display all necessary properties for a certain type of model.
The property name of the model element is passed to the composite as @{} parameter.
I'd like to be able to change the labels of parts in the included composite according to the specific property it's operating on: using @{} in labels does not seem to work.
Alternatively, is there a service which can assist in setting labels of properties dynamically? (Specifically regular Value property editors, so I understand ValueLabelService is not relevant in this case).
Thanks

Could you be more specific about where using @{} syntax does not work. You are probably running into the following issue, but I cannot be 100% sure based on the above description:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=367775

There is currently no service alternative to using @Label annotation. There is a facility in sdef that override that label with another static label, but that's about it.

I actually mean using @{} in those sdef static labels.

Ok. So to clarify, you want to use @{} in sdef label overrides for property editors?

If that's the case, the above bug does apply as that label override should support EL at some point in the future.

Ok. So it turns out that template params are already accessible from EL using ${ Params.FooBar } syntax. It seems that the only thing left to satisfy the required laid out here is to support EL in property editor label override. Could you open an enhancement request for that?
