Hi All,
I am working on project which uses cross document reference
functionality of EMF. I have two models
1) UML2.0 model. (Which is uml model created by emf’s tool project)
2) Description model (This model is create using emf to store
description of Uml model).
Both the models are in different resource and using EMF version
2.2. There is one constraint, that I can not change the UML2.0 model
because of dependency with other code.
Now problem is, I need to attach this new “Description” model to
UML2.0 model. I am trying to add this model inside the EMF model using
EAnnotation. EAnnotation has ‘details’ field which returns ECoreEMap,
which delegates to EStringTOStringMap as …

public class EAnnotationImpl extends EModelElementImpl implements
EAnnotation
{
………
---
public EMap getDetails()
{
if (details == null)
{
details = new
EcoreEMap(EcorePackage.eINSTANCE.getEStringToStringMapEntry( ),
EStringToStringMapEntryImpl.class, this,
EcorePackage.EANNOTATION__DETAILS);
}
return details;
}
--
--
--
}

Above is default implementation provided in
org.eclipse.emf.ecore.impl.EAnnotationImpl. Now I want my details contains
map which can take ‘object’ as key and value instead of String which is
provided by EStringTOStringMap. To achieve this I override details()
method as

EAnnotaion annotation = new EAnnotationImpl(){
@Override
public EMap getDetails() {
if(this.details==null){
this.details = new
EcoreEMap(Uml2docPackage.eINSTANCE.getObjectMap(), ObjectMapImpl.class,
this, EcorePackage.EANNOTATION__DETAILS);
}
return this.details;
}
};
annotation.setSource(IAnnotationConstants.DOCUMENTATION_SOUR CE);
umlelement.getEAnnotations().add(annotation);
This details method delegates to ObjectMap which is inside “Description”
model. So when I save my resources, my .uml file looks like bellow :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<uml:Model xmi:version="2.0" xmlns:xmi="http://www.omg.org/XMI"
xmlns:com.zensar.sbp.modelTransformation.model="http://zensar.com"

value="12154112091090"/>
</eAnnotations>

</uml:Model>

So my problem is :
1) When I load the uml and description model in resource set, it loads
object map with key but it doesn’t load value, which is cross document
reference to ‘description’ model.
2) What is the way to register my new annotationimpl inside EcoreFactory
and package.? Because when I load uml model, it again creates
EStringToString map and could not store my ObjectMap which in terns gives
ArrayStoreExcption.

Thanks in advance for any suggestion.
