Importing EMF models into Java through code [message #1692179]

Hi everyone,

here's what I'm going for: I need to import an emf model (ecore?) into my Java application. All I need is read access, there is no need to write back into the model. Ideally I would like to specifiy the path to the emf file and iterate through the component tree.

I'm sure this question has been asked, so feel free to point me to exisitng answers. If there are any plugins that facilitate what I need, I'd also be interested.

Greetings & Thanks,
Ferdinand

Ferdinand,

Is this a stand alone application or is it running as part of the IDE?
Do you really mean you want to load *.ecore file? Or rather is it an
instance of some model?
