Accessing model classes/objects from their Graphical Elements [message #197477] Wed, 16 July 2008 17:43 Go to next message

Hi,
I'm using GMF, and I would like to know how to access the underlying Model
class from the graphical element.
For example I have a UserEditPart object and would like to get UserImpl.
I've searched for solutions and found this
http://dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.modeling.gmf/m sg12739.html
but I am told I have an access restriction as follws:
The method resolveSemanticElement() from the type GraphicalEditPart is
not accessible due to restriction on required library C:\Program
Files\eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.diagram.ui_1.1 .0.v20080610-1132.jar

I get a similar restriction when I try to use getModel()

Any help and/or feedback would be grrrreatly appriciated.

Thanks,
Wayne

View view = (View)ep.getAdapter(View.class);
EObject semantic = ViewUtil.resolveSemanticElement(view);

Hello Wayne,

Do not see any problems in using getModel() method - it is defined in org.eclipse.gef.EditPart
....
