Hi,

Is it possible to add custom annotation information to classes and
features such that they are accessible via the EClass/EStructuralFeature
instances?

e.g.

/**
* @model foo="baa" ?
*/

I've tried if obviously and I'm guessing this just isn't possible but
wanted to double check!

Cheers with beers,

Andy

Andy,

In any @model annotation you can express an EAnnotation like this:

@model annotation="sourceURI a='b'"

So it's of the form annotation="{<source-URI> {<key>='<value>' }*}*"
and it will be converted to an EAnnotation on the corresponding
EModelElement with source set to the give source-URI and with details
containing the key/value pairs. Special characters can be escaped with \
and " and ' are interchangeable.

It's better then whine with wine. :-P
