Integrating EMF / GMF editors - diagram changes not saving [message #197989]

Hello,
This is my first time using the newsgroups so I hope I am posting in the
right place.
I have a project where I want to combine the EMF and GMF generated editors
and further customize them.
So far the editors are combined but all the changes made in the diagram tab
are not saved or reflected in the model (for example in the tree tab).
The model of the diagram gets initialized like the EMF model but does not
get updated or does not updated EMF model in the other direction.
It almost seems like the diagram is initialized with a model that is a copy
of the emf model instead of the model itself.
I am pretty new to EMF and GMF. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

tamer

Hi Alex,
This is the article I used to integrate my editors. I basically followed it
all the way to the RCP section using a different emf model but I am not
getting the expected behavior. The diagram tab does not update the model.
Any pointers would be helpful.
Thank you,

tamer

Hello Tamer,

So, you have non-RCP version of this combined editor, right?
In general this means you have used different instances of EditingDomain
(ResourceSet) to load data into the EMF- and GMF-generated editors..

Please re-check that you've correctly performed step http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-Integrating-EMF-GMF- Editors/index.html#extending_the_editor_input
- proper instance of EditingDomain used while constructing diagram document
in ???DocumentProvider.createEmptyDocument(). This instance of Editing domain
should be the same as one created in ???Editor.initializeEditingDomain()
- you can check it in a debugger.

Thanks a lot for your help. I just started the project from scratch and
payed extra attention to the section you mentioned. It worked.
Thanks again!
