Subject: [gmf-dev] Multipage editor with different model elements and
GMF


Hello,

My name is Tiago, a brasilian student, and I'm working in the
development of an open source platform for describe graphically models
of environmental systems, and started to use the Eclipse platform to do
this job.

I initiated the implementation using the EMF and generate the multi-page
editor. And then i started to study the GMF to create the graphical
editor.
But i have great difficulties to do this job and i like some help.

In simple words, the problem i found is: i have a model with the
following simplified strutcture:

UserModel
   |-> map1
   |-> map2
   (...)
   |-> automaton1
   |-> automaton2
   (...)
   |-> function1
   |-> function2
   (...)

The user will create elements like maps, automatons, and functions. I
build the .ecore and create the editor using the code generation of EMF.
But I need to display a different view (editor) as different elements
are created and selected. For example, for the map element is wanted to
display an image, for the automaton element a graphical state machine
editor with states and transition rules, for function element display a
text editor.

I dont know how to do this. I have already created the editor using the
EMF code generation. And I created in a separated project (to learn) a
simplified state machine graphical editor using the GMF (following the
wiki GMF Tutorial), but I don't know how to integrate them and to change
the page editor as the different elements are selected. I already seen
the article "Integrating EMF and GMF Generated Editors", but the problem
is that will not be the root element of the ecore model that will be
edited with the graphical editor generated with GMF, and I don't know
how to do this mapping...

I search for some solutions in the eclipse site and foruns, but don't
found the solution yet.

Please someone can help me?

Thanks
