Select an Edit Part by EObject

<back

If you have for example an Tree Viewer that fires SelectionChanged? for the EObject that is selected. In your Diagram Editor add the following method:

@Override
public void selectionChanged(IWorkbenchPart part, ISelection selection) {
		
    if (part instanceof ModelNavigatorView)
    {
	if(selection instanceof IStructuredSelection)
	{
	    IStructuredSelection structuredSelection = (IStructuredSelection) selection;
	    Object selectedObject = structuredSelection.getFirstElement();
	    if (selectedObject instanceof EObject)
	    {
		EditPart editPartToSelect = getDiagramEditPart().findEditPart(getDiagramEditPart(), 
                       (EObject)selectedObject);
		editPartToSelect.getSelected();
		List<EditPart> editPartsToSelect = new ArrayList<EditPart>();
		editPartsToSelect.add(editPartToSelect);
		ExhibitionDiagramEditorUtil.selectElementsInDiagram(this, editPartsToSelect);
	    }
	}	
    }
	
    super.selectionChanged(part, selection);
}
