Hello Akansha,
you should check your genmodel file (the file generated from the ecore
file). There should be an entry for each feature of each class where you
can set whether it should be displayed (read-only or editable) in the
properties sheet. Afterwards, you'll have to regenerate the edit code
(right-clicking on the package element in the genmodel file).
Regards,
Tobias

I've already noticed your other thread, and if I understand you correct
this should be the default behaviour...
I understood the following:
- you have a number of "Type*" nodes on your canvas, inheriting from a
common supertype "Type"
- you have another element with a reference of type "Type"
- you want the property sheet to display a list of all available
instances of Type (including instance of subclasses)
What is currently displayed when you expand the combo box for that
property? Is Type really a supertype of the four Type*?

Hello Akansha,
again I am not sure whether I understood you correctly. What you want is
that for that attribute Operation.type both all instances of Type
(including TypeA etc.) are displayed, /and/ the literals of that
enumeration, right?
What exactly do you want to achieve? Shall the enums be predefined
values for types (like primitive types in Java as opposed to Java
classes)? I don't think this is possible this way. Maybe you could
create a number of Type instances on diagram creation, representing the
values of the enumeration using a fifth Type type which has no graphical
representation in the diagram.
Regards,
Tobias

Another Idea: In your .edit plugin, you can change the method
addTypePropertyDescriptor of class OperationItemProvider and overwrite
the method getComboBoxObjects of the created ItemPropertyDescriptor. I
am not sure how exactly to do this, but this way you could add all the
Type elements to the list, as well as a number of fixed types --
however, this way the attribute Operation.type would have to be of type
String or Object...
Hope this helps,
Tobias

I think you should have a look at how this was realized in the EMF ecore
editor, since there you have exactly the same functionality: A dropdown
list featuring a number of predefined classes (such as EObject, EEList,
EJavaObject, ...) and your own classes. I think, they are using Strings
as representation for these, and not references to the actual objects.
Maybe you can build upon this...
