Method Detail

isAbort

boolean isAbort()
The Graphiti framework will call this method after #preUndo(org.eclipse.graphiti.features.context.IContext)/ #preRedo(org.eclipse.graphiti.features.context.IContext) have been called and before the actual undo/redo operation is triggered. In case this method returns true, the operation will be cancelled by the Graphiti framework by throwing an OperationCanceledException that causes am EMF revert of the operation.

Implementing classes might e.g. set a flag in #preUndo(org.eclipse.graphiti.features.context.IContext)/ #preRedo(org.eclipse.graphiti.features.context.IContext) as cancellation indication and check that that flag here.

Returns:
true in case you want to cancel the current operation, false otherwise.
