So the owner QualifiedName is managed by the class <code>QualifiedNameUtils</code> and calculated manually. - -=== Editors === -The diagrams and tables are managed by the internationalization. To do this, the diagram and table editor must inherit from <code>IInternationalizationEditor</code> which allows to modify part name and refresh the editor with the label. -If any new editor is comming with internationalization management, this one must ihnerit from <code>IInternationalizationEditor</code> too.
