XSD to dynamic meta model? [message #1479925] Wed, 19 November 2014 16:19 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Hi all,
Is it possible to transform an XSD to a dynamic meta model in memory at run-time without code generation, then (at run-time) instantiate models from it using an XML instance?
Anyone did that before and can tell about performance or any other issues/drawbacks?

Thanks.

With "using an XML instance" I mean that I have an XML instance/file conforming to the XSD that I want to de-serialize using the dynamic meta model.

org.eclipse.emf.ecore.xmi.impl.GenericXMLResourceImpl.GenericXMLResourceImpl(URI)
does that kind of thing. Probably
org.eclipse.emf.ecore.xmi.impl.GenericXMLResourceFactoryImpl.createResource(URI)
should be creating that type of resource, but if I changed it I'd likely
break existing users.
