| Re: [dtp-dev] Add more nodes to Schema tree node |
Hi Anthos... If you take a look at these two links, you'll see some code that provides a basic example of extending the model and adding your own objects to the tree. I recently had to go through this process myself for one of the Sybase databases. http://www.eclipse.org/datatools/project_modelbase/modelbase_doc/EclipseWorld/EclipseWorld_701_Building_with_the_Data_Tools_project.ppt http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/datatools/downloads/eclipseworld05/DTP_EclipseWorld.zip Basically it amounts to doing a few things... 1) Extending the base SQL Model's ecore EMF model definition and generating your own model extensions. 2) Creating a catalog loader (like Larry's suggesting). 3) Creating logical containment elements to add the new elements to the view (logical containment extension point) 4) Creating navigator content extensions to put new elements in the tree (along with the new node IVirtualNode classes) 5) Adding a label service (extension point) to contribute icons for those nodes. Hopefully the EclipseWorld example will help. Brian Fitzpatrick Senior Software Engineer/DTP Committer Sybase, Inc.

How about if I want to add nodes that are currently not there ?
