extends Property

Property for selecting ModelElement of given type. Editor of this property allows to choose some specific ModelElement from all existing elements in the current project.
Example for selecting some existing class or interface in the project:
ArrayList sel = new ArrayList();
sel.add(ClassTypes.MODELCLASS);
