[news.eclipse.modeling.gmf] Re: Decorator provider problem

[Vlad Ciubotariu <vcciubot@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Look in cvs dev.eclipse.org/cvsroot/technology for 
org.eclipse.gmf/examples/org.eclipse.gmf.examples.runtime.diagram.decorator

It has a working example and it's easy to modify. It doesnt work with
labels, i.e. if you want to simply decorate with a label, it won't work
out of the box. But it works with images.
