I struggle to see any relation with CDO. Is this a pure GMF issue? Or a CDO Dawn issue?
Comment 2 Martin Fluegge CLA 2010-10-16 12:53:56 EDT 
I do not think that this CDO related. To judge whether this is related to Dawn I need to know whether Dawn is involved or not.

So Bharath, are you using Dawn or do you create your GMF diagrams directly on CDO?

I also have to admit that I do not really understand what you mean with "change behavior dynamically". Do you mean that you just change the connection (e.g. add Bendpoints) and that the changes are gone when restarting the editor?

Martin,
    yes I mean that the changes (eg. Bendpoints) are gone when restarting the editor. I am directly using the GMF connection

O.k., so you are not using Dawn. This leads to the obvious question "Why not?" (1) ;)

It is hard for us to judge whether the error is placed on the CDO or GMF site as we do not know anything about your meta model or your editor.

Did you check whether the Bendpoints are saved in the repository or not? (2) My guess is that CDO works correctly but GMF does not display bendpoints you some reason.

Question 3.) Are there any exceptions or some suspicious print out which could lead us to the right direction?

Not a CDO issue. Please reopen if you're really sure that this is related with CDO. You may want to submit a bugzilla against GMF.
