Draw connection on attribute change [message #1016207]

Hi,

I have two elements A and B.

+---+     target +---+
| A |------------| B |
+---+            +---+

I can draw a connection from A to B via an entry in to palette, that's fine

Now I programmatically do:

A.setTarget(B)

of course I use the command framework

new SetCommand(editingDomain, A, Package.eINSTANCE.getA_target(), B);

but then, the connection is not drawn instantly. When I close the diagram and open it again the connection is visible. However I want to see it as soon as I change the property. Is this possible?

Solved it:

EditPart mainEditPart = (EditPart)(this.getRoot().getChildren().get(0));
CanonicalEditPolicy cep =(CanonicalEditPolicy)mainEditPart.getEditPolicy(EditPolicyRoles.CANONICAL_ROLE);
if (cep!=null)
 cep.refresh();
