org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.emf.type.core.edithelper
Class AbstractEditHelperAdvice

java.lang.Object
  extended by 
org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.emf.type.core.edithelper.AbstractEditHelperAdvice
All Implemented Interfaces:
IEditHelperAdvice
Direct Known Subclasses:
NotationViewDependentsAdvice, RemoveBookmarksAdvice

public class AbstractEditHelperAdvice
extends java.lang.Object
implements IEditHelperAdvice

Abstract superclass for edit helper advice classes that provide 'before' and 'after' advice for modifying model elements.

Subclasses can override the implementation for only the specific methods for the kinds of requests that they provide advice for. For convenience, these methods all return null by default.

Edit helper advice can be registered against one or more element types using the org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.emf.type.core.elementTypes extension point.
