This has got to be simple but it is getting past me.

I have modeled enums before when generating from xsd. Now I need use ecore and I am not getting what should be easy.

Here's what I want the generated code to look like. How do I model this in ecore?

JavaClass {

   enum XYZ {X, Y, Z};

   private XYZ xyz;

}

Thanks

EMF will never generate an enum nested in some other class. You create an EEnum just like you do an EClass or an EDataType directly as a child of the EPackage. Then you can create EENumLiterals as children of the EEnum.
