Refer to Enumerators in the ecore (not EEnums) [message #495832]

Hi

I am currently working within an existing, well-established code base
and introducing an EMF model to it - transforming the existing objects
into EMF objects. There are alot of existing enums and within the EMF
model the same enums have been described as EEnums. Is there a way to
refer to the existing Enums within the EMF model to avoid the duplicate
declarations and unnecessary code?

Thanks for your help

Cool. :-)

Hmmm. EMF enums need to support more API...

I'm not sure specifically what you're referring to. All by itself EMF
doesn't generate duplicates or unnecessary code. Perhaps you shouldn't
describe them as EEnums but simply as EDataTypes.
