Hi,

i work on several models depending on each other.
whenever i change something affecting the overall structure (f.e.
renaming etc.) of the model i have to recreate the model and all its
depending models. what i'm looking for is a way to automate the
following steps (for several models):

1) recreate (or delete+create) genmodel
2) delete data-model (generated stuff)
3) create data-model from genmodel

is there some automatism available (f.e. via ANT/Maven etc.)?

Thanks

Mirko,

It sounds like maybe you've never used "Reload..." which is available
from the popup on the .genmodel or from the menubar when the .genmodel
is open.

We also have Ant tasks and those support the ability to do a reload.

2.36 How can I use the EMF Ant tasks?

Hi,

You can use the EMF Ant tasks on 1 and 3 (and regular Ant tasks for 2 ;-).

See the FAQ for more information on them:

Cheers,
Marcelo
