Hi all,

I want to add Custom Unique ID to all the EObjects. This should be applicable for all EMF models which I am going to create in my application. How can I do that?

Maybe you can just use an XMIResourceImpl which assigns UUIDs automatically?

Hi Ed,

Thanks for the information. But I do not have any idea of how to do that?

Can you give me some more hint of how to do that?

Uma,

To try it with any model, set the Resource Type of the GenPackage to
XMI and specialize the
org.eclipse.emf.ecore.xmi.impl.XMLResourceImpl.useUUIDs() method of your
generated XMIResourceImpl extension to return true.
