Hi ,

I want to validate my model using EMF validation framework.
If i have to achieve this using GMF(i.e, EMF validation invoked through
GMF).
Pls let me know if this is possible, and if possible how should i go about
achieving the same.

can i make use of the org.eclipse.emf.validation.constraintProviders
extension in
the GMF projects plugin.xml to define my project specific constraints.
Is it possible to register the constraints of the model (EMF model) with
validation service through GMF's plugin.xml file.

Regards
Senthil

Hi Senthil,

If in your case GMF is calling the EMFT validation framework then you
can contribute your validation constraint against the
"org.eclipse.emf.validation.constraintProviders" extension point.

However, you will need to either use a GMF client context or provide
your own client context to ensure that your constraint gets evaluated.
This is a measure that we have included to prevent someone from
accidentally contributing a constraint that gets evaluated in places
where it is not intended.

There are tutorials and examples available as part of the EMFT
validation SDK that should provide more details about how to create a
constraint and a client context.

HTH,
Chris McGee
