| Generating plugins with dependent models using Eugenia [message #1844196] |

I have a workflow to generate standard plugins for EMF. A number of the ecore models have dependencies on other ecore models. I get the Eugenia compilation of these dependent models to work by registering the generated reuse target models (ecore files) in the epsilon model registry. However, I find that Eugenia does not move the model files to the plugin targets and consequently does not register the genmodel in the extension point. I can fix these issues up by scripting around.
However, the build duplicates the model code, placing a copy of the reuse target model in every client.
How can I specify the build so this works correctly short of installing the reuse target model plugins into the target platform ?

Seems that I need to add a usedGenPackages= directive in the genmodel. Leads to a two step generation process. I wonder how the model internal dependencies can be used to resolve the plugin dependencies. All the information is there, assuming a one-to-many map from plugin ID to metamodel URI. Interesting challenge.
If someone knows about the semantics of GenModel:foreignModel[*] any help would be welcome. It seems to draw in the registered foreign model on generation.
Also, the Eugenia Paper is very nice.

Hi Jörn,

This is also my understanding but for the exact semantics I'd suggest posting a message to the EMF forum.

Thank you - I'm glad you enjoyed reading it.
Best,
Dimitris
