Diagram xml and default.xml [message #201135] Fri, 08 August 2008 12:46 Go to next message

Hallo,
I need to use different xml from the default one to generated my gmf
diagram.
More precisely I want to adopt already existing xml (which has all the
information needed to generate a diagram but in different format). I saw
that in the default one are used xmi and xmlns is there way to avid them.
Could some one point me the place where these xmls are parsed and/or a way
to change these classes.I am not sure that my question is completely
understandable and correct so don't hesitate to correct me!
Best Regard Stanislav

Hello Stanislav,

If you are talking about the way to use proprietary XML format for storing
domain model then i suggest you to try "import from XSD" EMF feature. As
a result you'll be able to create your domain meta-model based on existing
XSD file + load/store all domain models in accordance with this XSD.

Thanks for the reply!
Yes I am talking exactly about this and i also read an article(tutorial)
about these xsd files. I will try follow it to accomplish my task

Sorry but it seems that i have mistaken i don't want my meta model to
generate my meta model with xsd but to have my diagram xml ( i am talking
about after you have created a diagram not to store it in a default way )

Hello Stanislav,

Then this is not so easy. In this case you have to create own ResourceFactory
producing custom Resource instances being able to store any Notation model
element using custom XML format.
Then you can register this ResourceFactory to be responsible for XXX_diagram
files creation instead of default factory registered in the generated plugin.xml
for the diagram editor plugin (org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.emf.core.resources.GMFResourceFacto ry).

Yes it looks like very hard job. Are there any hints or examples of doing
this?

Hello Stanislav,

Thi is a pure EMF task - to substitute standard resource factory by some
proprietary one. I'm not so big expret in EMF details, so i suggest posting
this question into EMF newsgroup. AFAIU, you have to develop a resource factory
loadin/saving information for existing API into a custom XML format (havin
DTD?)..
