Hi,

I can use the method eCrossReferences() to get the referencing EObjects of
a EObject, but if i want to get the referenced EObject, what should i do?

regards

eCrossReferences() is not what you think it to be. It's what you're
looking for ;-)

An object can have two sorts of references to other objects: containment
references and cross references. eCrossReferences() returns, guess, the
latter.

You might be interested in
org.eclipse.emf.ecore.util.EcoreUtil.UsageCrossReferencer, though.

Cheers

It returns all the objects referenced by non-container/containment
references the given EObject.

If you want to find all references to an EObject you need to use
something like a EcoreUtil.UsageCrossReferencer or ECrossReferenceAdapter.
