Tex,
If you look at what that does:
public static void delete(EObject eObject)
{
EObject rootEObject = getRootContainer(eObject);
Resource resource = rootEObject.eResource();
Collection<EStructuralFeature.Setting> usages;
if (resource == null)
{
usages = UsageCrossReferencer.find(eObject, rootEObject);
}
else
{
ResourceSet resourceSet = resource.getResourceSet();
if (resourceSet == null)
{
usages = UsageCrossReferencer.find(eObject, resource);
}
else
{
usages = UsageCrossReferencer.find(eObject, resourceSet);
}
}
for (EStructuralFeature.Setting setting : usages)
{
if (setting.getEStructuralFeature().isChangeable())
{
remove(setting, eObject);
}
}
remove(eObject);
}
You can imagine that doing a UsageCrossReferencer.findAll would visit
the whole model just once, looking for all the objects, rather than
visiting the whole model once per object. That ought to be a lot faster.
