Hi,
is there a way to create a *.ecorediag file from an existing *.ecore model programmatically? I know this can be done interactively via right-click on the *.ecore file and then "Initialize Ecore Diagram file..."

The *.ecorediag file should be created without user-interference (with default settings for parent folder and root node). I'd be grateful for any ideas.

Han,

Best to look at the source code for those things. The plugin spy can be
useful for finding the code Alt-Shift-F1/F2
