Hi Everyone,

I am working with a huge EMF Model, that has a lot of objects referencing but not containing other objects. I am now facing a Problem of deleting a highly referenced Object where i miss some references to it. Saving the Resource of the Model and reloading it is now causing heaps of trouble and crashes. So what I am looking for is a way to search in my EMF model all the references to that specific instance of the object that i want to delete so that i can remove the references before.

Cheers

Phil

A DeleteCommand does that... You can also look what EcoreUtil.delete does.
