Copy/Paste [message #76030]

Hi,

I wrote a GMF Diagram Editor with a Top Level Edit Part and an internal
label. When I use Copy/Paste a copy of the graphical node and its children
is created, but not the corresponding model elements.

Do I have to implement copy/paste using the EMF Clipboard support on my own
or ist there something provided by GMF.

Thanks
J

Hello Jörg,

There is copy/paste support in GMF. See
org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.emf.clipboard.core. Copy/paste works in the GMF
Logic Diagram Example. If you put breakpoints in the CopyOperation and
PasteOperation classes and try copy/paste in the Logic Diagram Example
you will see how this works with the model objects in the Logic Diagram.

Are you using a generated diagram editor? I don't think copy/paste
works by default in the generated editors and I am not sure if there are
issues with getting it working in the case of a generated diagram editor.

Regards,
Cherie

Thanks Cherie,

yes, I use a generated editor and it seems that it only supports semantic
copy of Top Level Nodes on the Canvas level. I will follow your advice and
dig into to logic example.

Hello Cherie,

it seems that clipboard support works also for the generated code, but only
when using one single file for the model and the diagram.

I wonder if a fix of this is scheduled?

best regards
J
