How to determine the selected package

[Hrungdak]

Hi all

I am writing an Add-Id. The user selects a package, right-clicks on it and calls the menu that i provide through my Add-in.

In my code i have to use this package and work with it. How can i find out which package the user has right-clicked on?

Hi Alex,

You can use Repository.GetContextItem()

I'm using this code in my Model wrapper class

Code: [Select]

/// the Element currently selected in EA
public UML.Classes.Kernel.Element selectedElement {
  get {
Object selectedItem;
try
{
this.wrappedModel.GetContextItem(out selectedItem);
return this.factory.createElement(selectedItem);
}
catch (COMException)
{
//something went wrong
return null;
}
  }
The factory figures out what object is selected and returns the appropriate wrapper.
