[news.eclipse.tools.emf] Re: [Databinding] Generic visualization of EObj

[Tom Schindl <tom.schindl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi John,

Maybe I'm blind but it couldn't find a patch which gives me a starting
point in bug #75625. I'm traveling the next 2 weeks but if you could
give me some code to play with I'll try to take a look though I can't
promise because my schedule for the next month is fairly tight.
