Getting Started with GEF - Part V: Create an Eclipse Editor

Introduction

In part 4 of this tutorial series, we implemented deletion of nodes, as well as changing their contents, yielding a minimal mind mapping application.

However, we cannot yet save our creations to improve them further at another time. Therefore, in this tutorial, we will create an Eclipse editor that can load and save mind maps. Also, some of the functionality implemented so far will be provided using Eclipse mechanisms, in particular, menu and toolbar actions.

This is part 4 of an ongoning series. I you havn't read part 1 , part 2 , part 3 and part 4 , you should start there.
