Paul,
This is just an EMF question for which you should use the EMF newsgroup,
not the EMFT newsgroup. I've added it to the "to" list of the reply.
You can use e.getClass().getName() to get the name of the actual
implementing class, or you can use e.eClass().getInstanceClassName() to
get the name of the generated or wrapped interface (if there is one).
Given the EClass, you can call EClass.getEAllStructureFeatures and for
each such feature, you can call e.eGet(feature) to get the value of that
feature.

Hi Ed,
thanks for the reply.
Before I used e.eClass().eGet and I couldn't get the value. didn't know that
I won't need the eclass() in between. Thanks a lot.
Regards
Paul
