Hello together,

is there something similar in EMF to create an assocation like in UML:

Association createAssociation(boolean end1IsNavigable,
AggregationKind end1Aggregation,
java.lang.String end1Name,
int end1Lower,
int end1Upper,
Type end1Type,
boolean end2IsNavigable,
AggregationKind end2Aggregation,
java.lang.String end2Name,
int end2Lower,
int end2Upper)

I just want to create assocations between EClasses, but the method createAssociation() belongs to the org.eclipse.uml2.uml.Type and not the EMF.

In Ecore you can set an EReference's eOpposite to define a bidirectional
reference.
