Bug 97436

Description Alexandre Torres 2005-05-31 08:01:38 EDT

I noticied that the EMF editor generated from the metamodel shows all related
resources in the "selection" tab or in the outline view. It show the properties
in the property view too and let the user change the data.
Suppose I have 2 files F1 and F2. F1 contais Object A, F2 Object B,C and D.
If A references B and D, when I select A on F1 it opens F2.
But after saving the data closing the file and opening again, I saw that it
saved only the data not referenced.
I changed the method doSave of the Editor generated class to save all the resources:
for (Iterator
it=editingDomain.getResourceSet().getResources().iterator();it.hasNext();) {
             Resource savedResource = (Resource)it.next();
             savedResources.add(savedResource);
             savedResource.save(Collections.EMPTY_MAP);    
}
At start it worked, but there is a situation that it doesn't. If instead of
opening the A object on file 1, I go to the Load resources menu and open the
file 2,and them I change the order of D and C by drag and drop, the Object A
will start referencing Object C instead of D (before and after save). Does It
happens becouse on XMI it uses positional reference? 
The strange thing is that if Object A is opened before I change the order, it
works fine (some kind of listner may warn Oject a?). The problem also happens
when the resource F2 is automatically opened by other file.
