Hi,
I see several possibilities:
. a Selection Wizard tool (or a antoher tool in which you add a
selection variable), populated with your descriptors (you could add the
descriptor concept in your metamodel) and then in the tool operations,
regarding the element selected in the wizard you might use the
CreateInstance and Set operations to instantiate some model elements.
. a generic tool, calling a Java service in its operation, from there
you might display a custom popup/wizard, and create your dynamic part of
the model with the Java API created from the metamodel: see the factory
class generated from your EPackage name:
MyEPackageNameFactory.eInstance.createDbType(), then
myDbType.setName(aName), ...
You can also call a Java service in the first option.
When you speak about statc model, dynamic model, what do you mean ? you
want to dynamically create a sub part of the model from the user
selection ? Do you also avoid to serialize this part?
