eNotification [message #198133] Mon, 21 July 2008 17:16 Go to next message

Hi,
I am accessing the underlying model objects because I need to create
objects which exist within the model but do not have a graphical
counterpart. When I add these elements to the base object, I get an
exception(but the first add will still be executed), I have traced it and
it to do with the notification line which exists in every models setters.
i.e.

if (eNotificationRequired())
eNotify(new ENotificationImpl(this, Notification.SET,......)

How do I avoid this exception, some way of manually notifying the
application of the change??

Any help would be great!
Wayne

Hi, Wayne,

I guess from your description that you are getting an
IllegalStateException with a message indicating that you need a
read/write transaction to modify the model. Is that right?

Any changes that you make to the model (semantics or notation) must be
performed in the context of a transaction, because GMF is implemented on
a transactional editing domain. Usually, you will use the
AbstractEMFOperation to encapsulate model changes and execute them on
Eclipse's IOperationHistory.

See the documentation in the EMF Transaction Developer Guide for
details:

HTH,

Christian
