Hi,

I made a metamodel, where Items is my container EClass.

part of the metamodel :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ecore:EPackage xmi:version="2.0"
    xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xmlns:ecore="http://www.eclipse.org/emf/2002/Ecore" name="hla"
    nsURI="http://hla/1.0" nsPrefix="hla">
  <eClassifiers xsi:type="ecore:EClass" name="Items">
    <eStructuralFeatures xsi:type="ecore:EReference" name="entities" upperBound="-1"
        eType="#//HEntity" derived="true" containment="true"/>
  </eClassifiers>

So after that I wanted to define a model

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<hla:Items xmi:version="2.0" xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:metamodel="http://www.example.org/metamodel" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.example.org/metamodel metamodel/hla.ecore">
</hla:Items>

But I get "Class 'Items' is not found or is abstract". The most surprising is that it worked for a while.

One day I shall master M2T, but that day has yet to come...

Hi Maxime,

If I understand correctly, this is more of an EMF question than it is an
M2T question, I added the emf newsgroup to the to: list of this answer.

I see the package's nsURI is "http://hla/1.0" but I don't see an xmlns
declaration for that (so the XML looks invalid) nor any other use of the
package's namespace (so the instance doesn't conform to the model).

I didn't find any tutorial or documentation regarding how to define a model (didn't know what to search for), do you know where I could find some ?

Until now I've been going by trial and error Embarrassed

One day I shall master M2T, but that day has yet to come...

Maxime, please respond on the EMF forum (your thread is there :
http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=msg&th=170220 ) as I don't
know if Ed monitors the M2T forum.
