Hi,

I need to tweak model code generation from a GenModel a little. In
general, it will stay the same, but some method implementations will
need to be enhanced a bit. From the EMF book I learn that GenModel's
templateDirectory property allows me to specify a directory with
templates to override the original templates. However, the path
specified must be relative to the workspace. Is there also a possibility
where the template could reside in an installed plugin rather than in
the workspace itself?

Many thanks,

Steffen

I think platform:/plugin/<plugin-id>/<relative-path-in-plugin> will do
the trick.

Hi,

Thanks for this idea. However, I've already tried it and it seems not to
work.

Regards,

Steffen
