[news.eclipse.modeling.gmf] Re: Create Connection between two Nodes prog

[Kai Schulte <descipar@xxxxxxxxx>]

Solved it. I guess not really in a fine way, but it works.

I put the corresponding code here in case someone has the same problem.

/*
 * Getting the current EditPart. Should always be the last one.
* After creating the Node
 */
BuildingEditPart buildingEditPart = null;
ListIterator buildingIte = buildingGridEditPart.getTargetEditPart(				 
buildingRequest).getChildren().listIterator();
while (buildingIte.hasNext()) {
		EditPart editPart = (EditPart) buildingIte.next();
	if (buildingIte.hasNext() == false) {
		buildingEditPart = (BuildingEditPart) editPart;
	}
}

/*
* Create connection
 */

IElementType buildingSmartMeterElementType = 
GridConfigurationElementTypes.BuildingSmartMeterRelation_4001;
CreateConnectionViewAndElementRequest
		buildingSmartMeterRequest = new 	CreateConnectionViewAndElementRequest(
	buildingSmartMeterElementType,
	((IHintedType) buildingSmartMeterElementType)
	.getSemanticHint(), PreferencesHint.USE_DEFAULTS);
	Command buildingSmartMeterCmd = buildingSmartMeterRequest
	.getCreateCommand(buildingSmartMeterRequest,
buildingEditPart, smartMeterEditPart);
buildingSmartMeterCmd.execute();
