| Get EClasses that extend a given EClass [message #1162625] |

Hello,
I'm trying to get a list of EClass objects that extend a given EClass. I know I can get the super classes of a given EClass, but I want to go the opposite direction. My current approach is to iterate over the EPackage registry and build a Map<EClass, List<EClass>>.
I think I know the answer, but is there any EMF properties that might make this cleaner?
Thanks,
Kyle

Kyle,
The subclasses of a class is an unbounded set so only by imposing
bounds, i.e., by considering only all classes of all packages in the
package registry, can you get a bounded result. Of course there might
come into existence a dynamic subclass, or even a dynamically loaded
bundle that contributes to the package registry a package that contains
a subclass, and you won't discover those...
