Hi,

I have a plugin (A) using emf and it should provide an extension point using a Interface from a own
generated class extending EObject. Other plugins (B, C, ...) should provide a class implementing the
interface (also as emf model) and providing a GUI to edit the properties.

How can I create objects from plugin C and handle it within emf in plugin A? And how can I save all
in one xml-file and read it later on?

I am quite new to emf and would be happy about any hints.

Thanks, Martin

Hi Ed,

thank you very much! It works very well, in a different way than I thought but it does what I want!

Here some hints for others according to the example from the link below:
* while creating the Link.genmodel make sure to add the "referenced generator model"
(Resource.genmodel) in the "Package Selection" page and NOT to select the package "Resource"
* generate only the model and edit code of the Link package
