Hi, Ian, hi, Ed.
I added Ian's comment to bug 210405, and I tried to change the topic of
the bug into
reload/load from Java not possible if code with model tags is in a
separate plugin
I think Ian's worflow is very realistic, especially if consultants come
into a new environment. One of my favorite scenarios with EMF would
still be to annotate legacy with EMF tags, extract the model in a
separate project, generate there the standard EMF code just to allow the
construction of test cases and MOCK objects.
For the clients I work, this would be a great progress, since it gives
them two things:
- up to date models of their (nightmare) code
- a testing scenario, which works as well if the 3 IBM hosts and 4 DB
servers are not up (which they are normally never....)
Best, Philipp
PS: Ian, you might vote for the bug...

Philipp,
This is trickier now since now the wizard itself has to specify two
separate things, so that will hold up completing it...

We don't die if it takes longer. Our aim for the moment is to generate
everything from the model.
The reload and load is only needed in large development projects, and
I try to avoid them for the moment.
As a work around, one can put the Ecore in the project of the generated
source, and reload it there. Then one can merge it in the local Ecore.
It's good enough for me to know that this is comming some time, and for
the moment I will not propose people to load from code that is in
different projects.
Best and thanks for caring about the timing,
Philipp
