Hi,

I looked at the documentation but still wondering how "EObject.eContents()" and "EObject.eAllContents()" compare.
I looked in a random EObject and "EObject.eContents()" return something when "EObject.eAllContents()" returns nothing.

Thanks.

Well, one returns a list and the other an iterator so I'm not sure you
how concluded "nothingness" in either case because in both cases a
non-null value is definite returned. The eAllContents is basically an
iterator over the containment tree, so it will most definitely return
all the objects that are in eContents, but in addition to that, each
subtree's eContents is visited recursively.
