Hi,

EcoreUtil.resolveAll (EObject eObject) makes a call to "eObject.eContainer()" right at the start of the method. Why is it done ?

Didn't find any explanation in EMF book/google.

Please comment.

Tx in advance.

The container reference van be modeled as a proxy resolving reference so accessing the eContainer will resolve that proxy, if there is one.
