Hi,

In my mapping model, I can create a element A into the diagram or into a
compartment of another element.
To do that, I use "referenced child" field of "child reference".

At the generation I have for example an AeditPart and an A2Editpart, I
obtain a duplication of code.
It is normal. How can we avoid this duplication in order to descrease
the size of generated code line.

thanks,
Patrick,

Hello Patrick,

There is no leagal way to do it now.
Nevertheless you can patch .gmfgen model - just modify "EditPartClassName"
property to point to the same сlass file and you'll have same EditPart class
used by two diferent diagram nodes.
Finally I have to highlight the fact that in this case GMF will just generate
selected class file two times - first generated class content will be replaced
by second one, so you should be shure they are identical..
