How can I model a reference to an EObject?
I want to create a metamodel which should be able to relate information
to a number of different EMF metamodels.
My metamodel is defined using Rose.

Thanks. I got this working. Below are a couple more details:

(File/Import/External Plugins and Fragments) a Missing Plug-ins dialog
pops up: "Some of the required plug-ins cannot be located. Can we
resolve them as project references?" [Yes,No]
I said Yes intially which lead to trouble with project refernces. Saying
No seems to be the better choice given that one is only interested in
using the base model.

This is done using File/Untits/Load and selecting the cat file.
I think one might have to define pathmap entries in case you want to
share the model, but I havent' tried that yet.

5. As soon as a reference is actually made one needs to declare the
"References generator model" when reloading the model. This is available
on the Package Selection page.
Otherwise a "Model Problems" dialog appears when opening the genmodel.
The detail information will look something like this:
Unable to resolve proxy 'platform<...>src/model.ecore#//EObject
Its use by 'plaftorm<...>MyModel.ecore#//MyClass/theObjects'
